Tweak retry time

Luke Benstead requested to merge tweak-retry-time into master

Summary of changes proposed in this Pull Request:

  • This increases the min wait time for retry from 100ms to 375ms as the previous value caused more problems than it solved (increased contention and likelihood of transaction failure)
  • The value is now overridable through the _initial_wait kwarg.

This is a stop-gap improvement as retry() needs a proper cleanup and tests. I haven't added documentation as the function is currently undocumented and will be undergoing API change soon so it's probably best not to advertise it too much now!

PR checklist:

  • Updated relevant documentation
  • Updated CHANGELOG.md
  • Added tests for my change
