The retry parameter to ProxyPass is how long apache will mark this backend as broken once it receives a bad response[1]. It sounds more like occasionally you cannot connect to the backend, which is controlled globally by the directive Timeout[2], and specifically for proxy connections by the directive ProxyTimeout[3], and for specific backends by the 'timeout' parameter to ProxyPass.
