    Hi, @breed . Thanks for your comment. You are right, we should keep the 
enough epoch value to avoid meet the epoch overflow. So i offer a better 
solution is 24-bit epoch in second comment. Even if the frequency of leader 
election is once by every single minutes, we will not experience the epoch 
overflow until **1915.2** years later.
