Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Yes, I'm talking about threads of instructions to the database. Boy I wish I'd thought of that potential area of confusion up front.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah, he mean threads as in the technical term, which is like one instance of a program running -- the details are a) not so important and b) going to be badly explained by me, so never mind.

However, the tech guy says it's connections, not threads, so we need to focus on addressing what he sees as the problem. He calls the shots.

edit: Or what Rob said.

Is it total number of connections over a period, or max concurrent connections that they are concerned about?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think it's the # of connections open at that "moment", but I'll double check.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yup, as I recall it was max concurrent connections that are the deal.

Do we know when they changed the wait_timeout from the default to five minutes? Was that after the last time the server fell over and caught fire?

Nobody

This may have been reported already, as it happened on August 21, but just in case...

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

They are now. There was a problem with a link in erika's post. It's fixed.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

On the message center refresh, the message is showing MIN_RELOAD_TIME text instead of the actual minimum number.

Thanks for the heads up.
