It's a long time since I worked on this but if I remember correctly, the
current algorithm is to continuously repeat:
- wait for recon_sync_interval
- randomly pick a member,
- randomly choose one of this member's IP address,
- do a single recon attempt with this IP address,
That is there is no specific retry for non-responding peers. They will
eventually get retried at random.
