Yes, I agree. Go ahead @awesomefei  Hi, is this done? Created pull request #797 in case it's still needed. I am new to open source, would really appreciate any feedback. I used this source to do it: https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/exponential-backoff
Updated: #829 
Implement Retry pattern with exponential backoff 
In practice, we often retry with exponential backoff to avoid making traffic congestion/server load worse, would be nice to implement this option.

Also, I would like to implement this.
