Looker SDK - Resetting dropped connection: example.looker.com

[jrbangit]

I have an API server that serves the list of measures inside our looker model explores. The service endpoint calls looker api underneath to get the model information, explore fields and measures etc. However, I noticed for every time the endpoint is called, there's a log `Resetting dropped connection: example.looker.com` in-between each calls to looker api. This is adding up to the latency in the response of my endpoint, I read that looker sdk uses urllib3 underneath and this is supposed to be resolved by adding retry? although I'm not sure about this and retry seems to be not configurable in ApiSettings. It would be appreciated if someone can point me to a direction concerning the issue. Thank you

note: I already implemented caching in my API service endpoint. However, the initial calls to the endpoint (when the cache expires) takes a long latency (5-9 seconds).
