Current behaviour doesn't interact well with corestore, because whenever a peer connects on a discovery key with you, this line is called:
https://github.com/holepunchto/corestore/blob/3ab2595c8313179bc98567dbe28389245ddca6e8/index.js#L345
Even though
active: false
is passed in when creating the core, whenthis.downloading
is true (which it always is initially) you still end up requesting a download from all the other peers you're connected with on that core, and they end up doing the same, so it propagates.Note: I'm not sure why
this.downloading
had default true. This is a big behaviour change, so might break something. Fwiw, tests also pass when it's defaulted to false.
