The peer count in the status bar is state_.peers.size(), refreshed only by
getpeerinfo — and the peers refresh interval was 0 (disabled) on every tab
except Peers. So the count never changed until you opened the Peers/Network
tab. Give peers a slow 20s cadence on all tabs (30s on Console); the Peers tab
keeps its fast 5s for the live list. During sync this is still overridden by
kSyncProfile (peers 0) so it can't contend with block download. Test updated to
the new intervals.
