it make sense to favor the nodes that are listed by more than one node
at the top?)
Been making this too hard. Save elegant answers for another venue.
Just assume 50 node clique (center). Assume these can each handle 125
connections to other nodes. Assume everyone else connects to 3 nodes
in the center and anyone out of the center that they want to. All
3-node paths choose a center node for their second hop. Then the
network easily scales to c. 1300 nodes with commensurate increase in
bandwidth. Distribute the center hardwired to new nodes or publicize.
Let directories tell about other nodes in the network. 50-50 that
path goes whatever-center-center.
