Restart-delay is now exponentially growing - that is: it starts with
a quick restart, and if your server keeps not working, it goes up to
a maximum value, to avoid filling the log files all around with repetitive
messages.

If you look at the man page, you can find

       --connect-retry n [max]
              Wait n seconds  between connection attempts (default=5).
              Repeated reconnection attempts are slowed down after 5 retries
              per remote by doubling the wait time after each unsuccessful
              attempt. The optional argument max specifies the maximum value
              of wait time in seconds at which it gets capped (default=300).

One could argue that this is a bug indeed (not reacting to SIGHUP while
waiting for connect-retry).  So please file one in our trac on
