tower/job-poll-max-interval

Maximum sleep interval (seconds) for exponential polling backoff

Upper bound on the sleep interval used by tower-invoke-curl when tower/job-wait-type is exponential. After each wait response, the current interval is doubled, then clamped to this value before the next sleep.

Without this cap, exponential backoff could schedule a single very long sleep that exceeds the typical responsiveness operators expect from the polling loop. With a cap, the loop transitions to fixed-interval behavior at the cap value once the backoff reaches it.

Ignored when tower/job-wait-type is simple or none.

Default: 60 seconds.
