What changed?
We now do 3 attempts to create the client, with exponential backoff using a retry policy.
Also removed deprecated mock clock and replaced with the new timeSource
Why?
We sometimes see trancient failures on creating the client, currently this causes the whole server to crash during startup, this adds a few retries before giving up
How did you test it?
Unit tests
