Comment(by mikeperry):
I like the idea of making it configurable, perhaps as a consensus
parameter. I'll add that in the final version. I don't think we need to
hold off on exhaustive studies though. We should just pick bounds high
enough that we're sure they're bad news if they actually happen. I think
the best study will be just to run it for a while and see what the results
look like for guards and bridges.
At a later date, we can potentially use #5459 to discover tighter
consensus params if we really wish.
Also, I forgot to mention that I've tested the functionality of the patch
and it does appear to at least properly accumulate stats, and properly
save and restore stats.
