259 ↗	(On Diff #30657)	Some comment explaining how these parameters are chosen would be good.
src/avalanche/peermanager.h
290 ↗	(On Diff #30657)	It is unclear if this is a a tell or an ask. It looks like a tell, but that make no sense as a free function.

Improve the name and expand a bit on the choosen parameters

src/avalanche/peermanager.cpp
266 ↗	(On Diff #30669)	This is very specific and in the end it will be a static function, so I don't feel like it's needed to make it even more public API.
