OK, I think this is actually a problem. I seem to get around 5 or 6 successful 
requests from my mod_python app without these error messages. After that, my 
browser says that the connection to localhost.localdomain is broken and the 
server doesn't process any more of these requests (though it does seem to 
continue serving non-database requests). Restarting Apache (not MySQL) solves 
the problem.

Any ideas? Should I try sqlrelay?

Cheers,
Richard
