Right now bitcoinj is hard-coded for minimal bandwidth usage (i.e. smartphones
on 3G connections). As the library gets used more on desktop wallets, we should
change this default to be higher bandwidth and allow mobiles to opt-in to lower
bandwidth, possibly just when using a cell tower.
The main difference: in high bandwidth mode, we need to make Bloom filters
noisier. We could also connect to more peers. This will become more important
when we are reusing keys less.
