The sentinel stores hardcoded a 30s read timeout and a 1m retry backoff.
After a sentinel failover every request that picked a pooled connection to
the old master sat there for 30s before the connection was retired, and the
pool timeout derived from it (read timeout + 1s) queued the rest behind
them. The other redis stores took the go-redis defaults with no way to tune
anything.
Read the dial, timeout and pool knobs from each redis store section instead,
keeping the go-redis default for every key left unset.
