Agreed.

Changing it to name could also cause confusion with the actual process name
(given on supervisor/gen_server/etc's start_link).

In Elixir we use:

  • max_restarts - the maximum amount of restarts allowed in a time frame.
  • max_seconds - the time frame in which max_restarts applies.

I would avoid calling it just "time" or "period" because those do not make
clear what is the time unit.
