This modifies the net sync manager to track the recently rejected transactions using a much more efficient APBF instead of map which needs store the entirety of the key for the items added to it. It also significantly increases the number of tracked rejected transactions thereby further lowering bandwidth usage in high rejection scenarios while simultaneously increasing robustness against malicious peers. More concretely, tracking the new higher number with the current map would take around 4.47 MiB per profiling while the new APBF only takes around 568 KiB, a reduction of around 88%, while exhibiting roughly the same computational performance. |

netsync
Package netsync implements a concurrency safe block syncing protocol.
Overview
The provided implementation of SyncManager communicates with connected peers to perform an initial block download, keep the chain in sync, and announce new blocks connected to the chain. Currently the sync manager selects a single sync peer that it downloads all blocks from until it is up to date with the longest chain the sync peer is aware of.
