Problems to solve: Currently we are gossiping a maximum of 8 connections which is not a lot on something like a seed node where may have 10,000 or more. Additionally,
lists/sublist/2
allows for the length of a sublist to be longer than the input - so using a conditional doesn't make much sense (except to avoid the randomization/sorting but on a short list, it costs almost nothing anyway).Solution: Up to the default limit to 200, remove the conditional test. In my testing on this, we could probably store closer to 1500 connections and be under the 50 kb gossip limit.
