It's not Apache::DBI that's caching it -- you're caching it. Don't put a database handle in a global before you fork. It will stay, and there's nothing Apache::DBI can do about it. You are probably not reusing this connection, but you don't need to. It will sit there, open, and eventually time out, which will cause the error messages you see and also trigger cleanup on the server side. The server side cleanup may hurt other open connections from the same process. So, never put a database handle in a global during startup. - Perrin
