Not necessarily. RelStorage reconnects automatically. The reconnection is invisible unless the disconnect happens in the middle of a request, in which case RelStorage raises the error then automatically reconnects on the next request. > However, it's literally just the thread handling this particular request > that shows the error... Two ideas: - MySQL is dropping the connection after a long period of inactivity, then RelStorage doesn't notice it's dropped until it's too late. Connections that poll take defensive steps to prevent that, but maybe you're using a connection that does not poll. - A single MySQL thread is dying. (Is MySQL multithreaded?)
