yes - that is very ugly -  I gave up on mysql with TG, at least for SO
due to unicode issues - (no great loss as postgres is by far my
'sentimental' favourite) but 80% of my paid work atm is ruby on rails +
mysql, so while ive experienced no issues I thought id better  check -
apparently mongrel has a timeout value, which if lower than that of the
mysql connection will 'revive' the connection before it 'goes stale' -
perhaps cherrypy can be extended to have something similar to  this
added, given lack of response from mysql people?

anyhow good luck - and thanks for the explanation
