Retries are done 19as usual (see --retry) as long as the timer has not reached this given 20limit. Notice that if the timer has not reached the limit, the request is 21made and while performing, it may take longer than this given time period. To 22limit a single request's maximum time, use --max-time. Set this option to zero 23to not timeout retries. 24
