     *
     * Reconnect behaviour can be controlled through the following options:
     *
     * - reconnect: true/false (enables/disables reconnect entirely)
     * - reconnect_timeout: seconds (give up and report failure after specified time)
     * - reconnect_limit: n (give up and report failure after specified number of attempts)
     * - reconnect_interval_min: seconds (initial delay between failed reconnection attempts)
     * - reconnect_interval_max: seconds (maximum delay between failed reconnection attempts)
     * - reconnect_interval: shorthand for setting the same reconnect_interval_min/max
     * - reconnect_urls: list of alternate urls to try when connecting
     *
     * The reconnect_interval is the time that the client waits for
     * after a failed attempt to reconnect before retrying. It starts
     * at the value of the min_retry_interval and is doubled every
     * failure until the value of max_retry_interval is reached.
     *
     * Values in seconds can be fractional, for example 0.001 is a
     * millisecond delay.
