Thanks to everyone to posted to me publicly and privately on this problem.
I finally traced the problem to a 3rd party set of MySQL components I was
using for Delphi. It appears they have a bug in their MYSQL query component
that caused a socket error if too many queries/second were executed and it
momentarily caused the MySQL server to disconnect not only for my
application, but all applications using the MySQL server. I was able to get
around it by changing one of their properties. I can't believe I spent a
day taking everything apart and twiddling with MYSQL settings and my
program only to find the problem was with a 3rd party component. Sheesh!
