The next retry doubling each time is ridiculous every day I wake up I have to restart the client because it is waiting for a few hours before next retry
if I restart I am back folding within minutes , I feel it should cycle between 15 minute intervals , ie ) reach 15min then next retry 30sec , 1min , 2min .. 15min cycle again
Limit maximum time to wait for retry

Re: Limit maximum time to wait for retry
The algorithm is designed to protect a server if it goes offline, so it doesn't get instantly swamped on its return.
In any case, if a server is overloaded (the usual reason for retries), the last thing it needs is more retries.
Having said that, if the delay exceeds 2 hours, it can be reset by Pause ... Fold on the slot. Just don't do it too often.
