| Usage |
minimum_retry_timeout (seconds) |
Description
This specifies the minimum connect timeout, when the connect timeout is reduced to compensate for the availability of multiple IP addresses. When a connection to a host is initiated, and that host has several IP addresses, the default connection timeout is reduced by dividing it by the number of addresses. So, a site with15 addresses would then have a timeout of 8 seconds for each address attempted. To avoid having the timeout reduced to the point where even a working host would not have a chance to respond, this setting is provided.
| Default |
The default, and the minimum value, is five seconds, and the maximum value is sixty seconds, or half of connect_timeout, which ever is greater and less than connect_timeout.
