According to the comments in the retrier, gax is supposed to be using exponential backoff which is industry best practice

// Backoff implements exponential backoff. The wait time between retries is a |
But in the actual code it seems to be a linear backoff based on the multiplier

d := time.Duration(1 + rand.Int63n(int64(bo.cur))) |
|
bo.cur = time.Duration(float64(bo.cur) * bo.Multiplier) |
Is this the intended approach or should it in fact use some kind of exponential calculation like in the linked blog post?
