The peer discovery time has a significant impact on the overall PeerDist download speed, since each block requires an individual discovery attempt. In most cases, a peer that responds for block N will turn out to also respond for block N+1. Assume that the most recently discovered peer (for any block) probably has a copy of the next block to be discovered, thereby allowing the peer download attempt to begin immediately. In the case that this assumption is incorrect, the existing error recovery path will allow for fallback to newly discovered peers (or to the origin server).
