> We use ScaleCube for discovery. It uses SWIM protocol that relies on timeuts. 
> This means that for some reason a node might not send a ping/pong message 
> timely (for example, if it encounters a long JVM pause), which results in 
> other nodes thinking that it has disappeared.
> First, we should carefully choose the default values for timeouts: if they 
> are too low, the probability of dropping a node from a cluster is very high 
> (but if they are too high, some tests might take a lot longer).
> Also, we should account for the possibility of a node to be dropped from the 
> cluster. This means that:
>  # When we get a node from a physical topology, we must always check that it 
> was returned and handle 'no such node in the topology' gracefully
>  # Long message exchanges (for instance, streaming a RAFT snapshot) must be 
> robust so as to survive short disappearances of nodes (it would be bad to 
> waste a snapshot installation that already took 30 minutes just because of a 
> transient failure)
>  # We need to avoid hangs in cases if someone waits for a message that never 
> gets delivered due to such a transient failure (could this be the cause for 
> IGNITE-18506, where sometimes a message never arrives to an internal cursor?)
