/* How many gossip sections we want to add? 1/10 of the number of nodes
* and anyway at least 3. Why 1/10?
*
* If we have N masters, with N/10 entries, and we consider that in
* node_timeout we exchange with each other node at least 4 packets
* (we ping in the worst case in node_timeout/2 time, and we also
* receive two pings from the host), we have a total of 8 packets
* in the node_timeout*2 falure reports validity time. So we have
* that, for a single PFAIL node, we can expect to receive the following
* number of failure reports (in the specified window of time):
*
* PROB * GOSSIP_ENTRIES_PER_PACKET * TOTAL_PACKETS:
*
* PROB = probability of being featured in a single gossip entry,
* which is 1 / NUM_OF_NODES.
* ENTRIES = 10.
* TOTAL_PACKETS = 2 * 4 * NUM_OF_MASTERS.
*
* If we assume we have just masters (so num of nodes and num of masters
* is the same), with 1/10 we always get over the majority, and specifically
* 80% of the number of nodes, to account for many masters failing at the
* same time.
*
* Since we have non-voting slaves that lower the probability of an entry
* to feature our node, we set the number of entires per packet as
* 10% of the total nodes we have. */
