+          Defines a list of extra spawn options for net ticker processes. There exist
+          one such process for each connection to another node. A net ticker process is
+          responsible for supervising the connection it is associated with. These
+          processes also execute the distribution handshake protocol when setting up
+          connections. When there is a large number of distribution connections,
+          setting up garbage collection options can be helpful to reduce memory usage.
+          Default is <c>[link, {priority, max}]</c>, and these two options cannot be
+          changed. See the documentation of the
+          <seemfa marker="erts:erlang#spawn_opt/4"><c>erlang:spawn_opt/4</c></seemfa>
+          BIF for information about valid options.
