"total_retry_time" not include connection timeout

[qishibo]

• Version: 2.8.0
• Platform: node v8.11.2 on ubuntu
• Description: Connection to an IP which can't be reached, emit a retry event after a very very long time during every retrying... What I meas the total_retry_time not include connecting time, and retry event will be emited after another connection timeout, if the connection timeout not setted, default is quite a long time.

// connect to an IP not exists
redis.createClient(6379, '999.999.999.999', options);

I solved this with a connect_timeout param which is abandoned by official...this will solve the first time connecting timeout problems...(max connection timeout set to 2S before emiting retry event )

const redis = require('redis');

// Redis connection options
const options = {
  // Set the socket timeout to 2 seconds
  socket_timeout: 2000, // Timeout in milliseconds
};

// Create Redis client with options
const client = redis.createClient({
  port: 6379,
  host: '999.999.999.999',
  ...options
});

// Event handler for connection error
client.on('error', (err) => {
  console.error('Redis connection error:', err);
});

// Event handler for retry
client.on('reconnecting', (details) => {
  console.log('Retrying connection...', details);
});

// Event handler for successful connection
client.on('ready', () => {
  console.log('Redis client connected and ready.');
});

// Event handler for end of connection
client.on('end', () => {
  console.log('Redis client connection closed.');
});
