I have had the same problem (don't know if it is the same cause). I have noticed it
occurs
when the site gets light to moderate simultaneous hits.
This is the error mysqld gives:
(Got timeout reading communication packets)
010427 22:50:58 Aborted connection 7226 to db: 'midgard' user: 'midgard' host:
`localhost'
I am going to try to change some of the mysql setting and see if that helps... I will
let
you know if it fixes it.
