Instead of the normal division which looses precision, use a division with rounding.

Why do we need to have more precise rounding here? In doubt, we should rather always round down to avoid any spurious routing loops - the loop free property depends on monotonicity after all, and therefore its better to always round down.
I'm not convinced that this change is safe in that regard, if you think it is please explain further.
