There is no major disadvantage of having many seed nodes. It will try to
send an message to all of them at startup so keeping it <= 10 might make
sense but I think it will work fine with 100 also (but maybe not 1000).

Seed nodes are only used in the joining process, otherwise they are equal
to all other nodes.
