go-libp2p recently reduced the length of time it stores multiaddrs for peers in case they go out of date. This means that queries have started finding provdiers/closer peers without multiaddrs as those addreses expire.

We switched to running a find peer when these addressless peers are discovered but it is incredibly expensive since a single find peer can result in multiple dials.

Instead honor the peer without multiaddrs, a separate PR will be opened to allow doing the find peer at dial time if the user choses to dial the discovered peer.

Change checklist

  • I have performed a self-review of my own code
  • I have made corresponding changes to the documentation if necessary (this includes comments as well)
  • I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works
