Sleep Prevention

Package retry invokes a given function until it succeeds. It sleeps in between attempts based the DelayMethod. It is useful in situations that an action might succeed after a few attempt due to unavailable resources or waiting for a condition to happen. The default DelayMethod sleeps exactly the same amount of time between attempts. You can use the IncrementalDelay method to increment the delays between attempts. It gives a jitter to the delay to prevent Thundering herd problems. If the delay is 0 in either case, it does not sleep between tries. The IncrementalDelay has a maximum delay of 1 second, but if you need a more flexible delay, you can use the IncrementalDelayMax method and give it a max delay.
