> The verification of a suspected member can take more than timeout. It depend of being followed closely by other suspected members or not.
> Let's timeout = 2000ms.
> - At T: Member A is suspected (by Failure Detection protocol).
> - At T +  1500ms:  Member B is suspected too.
> Member A is declared as definitively dead 3500ms later. The "worst case" occurs when a continuous flow of suspected members arrive with an interval between 0 and 2000ms (timeout). Suspected members are never removed from view.
