Hi,

The data output tab is empty.

and yes, in the bottom right corner I do see the usual "waiting... "
message for 2-20 seconds - but when the query bombs, the connecting shifts
to idle, the execute icon is greyed out, then that "waiting..." message
disappears too

It is interesting that the problem varies so much in intensity: the day
before yesterday it bombed out at least 10 times, sometimes repeatedly
while running the same script.  Yesterday it happened only twice during the
usual run of around 50 scripts

This erraticness do make me wonder if this is some kind of race bug, where
server loads and internet connectivity delays and a host of other factors
cause some kind of race condition

Using explain / analyze does not help either, since when it bombs out there
is no output or message at all

Best regards
Calle
