Replication continuous timeout - exponential back-off

HI all,
I noticed that if i replication setup, and one of my nodes goes offline 
for awhile, the nodes that are replicating from that one (I'm using pull 
replication)
will back off exponentially (upto about about 600 seconds).

ie. we see in the logs
Restarting replication in 5 seconds.
Restarting replication in 10 seconds.
Restarting replication in 20 seconds.
Restarting replication in 40 seconds.
Restarting replication in 80 seconds.
Restarting replication in 160 seconds.
Restarting replication in 320 seconds.
Restarting replication in 600 seconds.
Restarting replication in 600 seconds.

Is there a way redefine the 600 cap to something like 80?

Cheers
Dan
