Instead of being self-healing™, Daihinia does not have any parts that can get sick™ :)

However, the underlying layer (WiFi in Ad-Hoc mode) may experience getting out of sync. More about this problem can be found in these documents. As soon as the network adapter resynchronises with its neighbors, Daihinia is immediately ready to work.

Considering the above said, it's probably a good question to ask your WiFi hardware vendor concerning the scalability of the clock synchronisation algorithm that their products use in Ad-Hoc mode.

In other words put, the delays due to resynchronization are not on behalf of Daihinia. They're from the layer below (the WiFi adapter in Ad-Hoc mode).
