Re: Proposal to add connection request Wait-time in PSQL client.

This case only for the client PSQL, who has running transaction,yet not has been finished 
and suddenly some other backend crashed or killed, then server restarted in recovery mode.

Then this client immediately send request to connection reset, But it might fail because of server is 
not startup properly to accept connection from recovery mode.
So, idea behind this, before throwing connection fail error, client should wait keep trying for connection reset, in bounded wait time.

Yes, you are correct. even in those script need to add time interval to resend  request again and again.
 Instead of this, can we add loop in Client code, so it can keep trying to connection request?
 in a way, we client terminal wont hangup by throwing  *The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed. !*
