Releases: juju/retry
v1.0.1
What's Changed
This is a small bugfix update from previous versions, though there is one small behavioral change.
The primary fix is that previously if you did ExpBackoff(min=1.0, max=200, factor=2.0, jitter=false), then the times would be in the expected 1.0, 2.0, 4.0. Up to the max. However, when you set jitter=true, while it would preserve the maximum to be the same time as the original backoff, it would pick a random value from 0ms to the max delay, and then truncate that to the minDelay. Which meant that it actually changed the average wait time to something close to 50% of the expected times.
The new logic does a +/- 20% from the expected delay, and then caps that at min and max. This averages very close to the expected values (in testing, the over time difference is around a 1% shift.)
