[Rails] Re: Broken pipe error under FastCGI and Mysql (proposed fix)

[Henning Koch]

I just figured the way multiThreshold works was described further
down for the special case singleThreshold in the FastCGI docs.

I set both thresholds to "100", which with my understanding should
terminate FastCGI processes every time the instance killing policy
is enforced within the process manager

In case this is not going to be fixed within ActiveRecord itself,
I propose mentioning the following FastCGI configuration line in
the Wiki and the Rails documentation:

     FastCgiConfig -killInterval 300 -multiThreshold 100 -singleThreshold 100

The value for killInterval should be below your Mysql timeout.
