The idea is that exponential backoff applies when metadata responses are "equivalent", but when things are progressing, the backoff is avoided. I think a similar principle could be helpful here. Essentially, if "progress" is being made such as a coordinator change, do not apply the backoff. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
