Prevent production server from being unexpectedly overloaded *before* DBA can analyse such cases and take actions to avoid them. Typical cases: - possibly heavy ad-hoc queries parallel to fast well-tuned ones - unlucky database/application upgrade (e.g. some plans are screwed) i.e. if you don't want some guilty connection(s) to dramatically affect the whole system. You may also email Twitter guys and ask why they have patched MySQL to add the statement timeout support. They surely were solving some artificial problem nobody else could see ;-) Dmitry ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Firebird-Devel mailing list, web interface at https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-devel
