Bug Description

Investigating the _retry() method[0] in the swiftclient it appears to use a number of instance variables.

For example, self.attempts could be altered by multiple calls to get_object() causing race conditions. There are also race conditions around resetting the url and token where one call to _retry() may reset these just as another calls it.
