Description

CloudFiles throws 408 Request Timeout errors for me occasionally and jclouds throws an HttpResponseException in reponse. We should retry these like other transient errors in org.jclouds.openstack.swift.v1.handlers.SwiftErrorHandler.handleError. clearContainer against large containers seems to surface these more often, perhaps due to high concurrency.
