(* The 'pool' urges the maintainer to work when the number of
   connections reaches `max` or is below `min`. Otherwise, the
   maintener is lazy and only lookup for connection every two
   minutes. The [maintain] function is another way to signal the
   maintainer that a maintenance step is desired.

   When the maintener detects that the number of connections is over
   `max_threshold`, it randomly kills connections to reach `max_target`.

   When the maintener detects that the number of connections is below
   `min_threshold`, it creates enough connection to reach at least
   `min_target` (and never more than `max_target`). In the process, it
   might ask its actual peers for new peers. *)
