[jira] [Created] (JCLOUDS-100) Better handling of API rate limits

Omar Alrubaiyan created JCLOUDS-100:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Better handling of API rate limits
                 Key: JCLOUDS-100
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-100
             Project: jclouds
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.5.10
            Reporter: Omar Alrubaiyan
            Priority: Critical


Right now it seems that there is some retry logic when API operations fail. However, the retry logic does not handle hitting the API rate limit very well. The problem is that the retries are done successively instead of  exponential back-off retries which is the recommended way of dealing with EC2 API limits.
