I'm curious about this as well.  iburst is your friend.

The assoc.html page says:

 The <tt>burst</tt> and <tt>iburst</tt> options should not be used in
 symmetric modes, as this can upset the intended symmetry of the
 protocol and result in spurious duplicate or dropped messages.

At one point I remember that FLAG_IBURST was ignored for peers, but I
don't see that now from a quick glance at the code.
