Overview
The RetryHandler previously used
time.sleep(delay)to pause between retries. However,time.sleepis a blocking call and can halt the entire async event loop, which negatively impacts asynchronous applications like FastAPI.This PR replaces
time.sleep(delay)withawait asyncio.sleep(delay), ensuring that the sleep is non-blocking and the event loop remains responsive during retry delays. This change improves compatibility and performance in asynchronous environments.Related Issue
