Hah, how's that for selective blindness. Totally missed that :-)

Yep, that's it; but indeed, since aborted clients aren't logged, then, I seem to be in a
ditch.

Oh, yes, millions upon billions of lines of wonderfully obscure Java stacktraces that
reveal little more than "Lost connection to database" for every couple of thousand lines.
Everything works fine most of the time, then randomly some queries will get slow, and
eventually the connections will drop. Rinse and repeat.
Oh well. Thanks for pointing out my reading error, I'm off to lart the devs into profiling
their code to figure out *what* causes the slowness. Guess I'll have to set up some
tcpdumps, too.
