Hello JB,

This is an interesting question! I can't give you an answer on this one. Personally, I'd be more concerned about preventing failure than improving the failover time, and I would be careful not to increase any false positives (by taking corrective action sooner) or extra overhead (by checking more often).

What exactly is the reason you are trying to tweak this? Did you experience failovers that took too long? And doesn't the load balancer offer some sort of protecting against an instance being unavailable?
