The retry maxRetries change 0502e44 alerted to us with a problem with RequestErrors when talking to DynamoDB. Some queries are now reaching the maxRetry limit of 20 and fail.
After investigation https://github.com/weaveworks/service-conf/issues/1066 we believe these are caused by the sheer number of requests we are making due to non-persistent connections.
There is a bug in golang where the maximum idle connections per a host does not work as expected and golang kills idle connections aggressively golang/go#13801
This PR sets
MaxIdleConnsPerHost
explicitly to 100.This change has been tested locally where we have seen Request Errors reduced from a constant stream to none.
Fixes https://github.com/weaveworks/service-conf/issues/1066
