OSDs heartbeat with their peers, the set of osds with whom they share
at least one PG.
You can see the heartbeat peers (HB_PEERS) in ceph pg dump -- after
the header "OSD_STAT USED  AVAIL TOTAL HB_PEERS..."

This is one of the nice features of the placement group concept --
heartbeats and peering in general stays constant with the number of
PGs per OSD, rather than scaling up with the total number of OSDs in a
cluster.
