m Timing and availability: Pluralize "number"
Line 62:
* ''MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures)'' is the average time between failures for a server. It is also relative to the infrastructure.
* ''electionTimeout'' is the same as described in the Leader Election section. It is something the programmer must choose.
Typical numbernumbers for these values can be 0.5 ms to 20 ms for ''broadcastTime'', which implies that the programmer sets the ''electionTimeout'' somewhere between 10 ms and 500 ms. It can take several weeks or months between single server failures, which means the values are sufficient for a stable cluster.
