> When {{AkkaUtils.askWithReply}} gets a TimeoutException, the default parameters {{maxAttempts = 1}} and {{retryInterval = Int.MaxValue}} lead to the thread sleeping for a good while.
> I noticed this issue when testing for SPARK-6980 and using this function without invoking Spark jobs, so perhaps it acts differently in another context.
> If this function is on its final attempt to ask and it fails, it should return immediately.  Also, perhaps a better default {{retryInterval}} would be {{0}}.
