Very slow database queries causing db errors (4 posts)

    Over the past couple months I've been having some strange issues with very long database queries which end up crashing the db and turning up the "error: unable to connect to database" message. Rebooting the db container I'm on (Mediatemple is my host) usually clears it up. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Here is the db log of queries taking over 1 second which was created right after one such crash:
