Probably not. Peering does not in any way average the time from
several servers. It just creates an association that may work
either way (but not both).

It's useful when both servers have (disjoint) references, and
may independently lose their connection with those. Then either
server can fall back on the other. If both servers have the
same sources, you gain nothing.

If you have only one source, just build a simple tree. Doing better
requires rather careful fault scenario analysis.
