Hi all,

I've got a query that fetches an entity by key_name, and now and then
(maybe once or twice a day) it times out. Reading the docs, it seems
like this is fairly common.

Most of times I see it it's from a search bot or something, so I
haven't really bothered doing anything, but since it is affecting
visitors to, I wonder if I should.

I saw some code that retries failed data access, but I don't know how
long whatever causes these timeouts takes. Is it likely to just time
out again if it's re-issued immediately? Should I just let the 500 be
served, and hope the user/bot retries, or is it recommended to wait a
few seconds and try again?

I'd be interesting in hearing peoples experiences with retrying. Do
retries just fail too, or does it generally clear up the problem?
