First I'd like to know Steven's response to the mysql bug news. If we reset the daemon, and drastically drop the number of connections logged as being used, I'd like to know his stance.
Eggs. The living legend needs eggs. Or maybe another milk.

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

I don't think I understand. What stance?

The "the problem's your code, I wash my hands of it" stance.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Deleted as it's not pertinent to our connection issues.

Well, even if it turns out that the problem is a bug in MySQL, I can't see his stance changing on that. Other sites using MySQL don't seem to be affected by this bug the way that we are. His only option would be remove the restrictions on connections and I'm thinking that's not going to happen.

Astarte, we're only allowed 100 connections. And if we increase it, we'll just falsely eat more, I bet.
We're currently all sharing ONE of our allotted 100. The system is just bogarting the other 99.

Not even restarting the daemon?
I wish I knew what the timeline to a bug fix was, but it's not something we can use as a factor in decision making.
We may need more than $20 of resources, but a bug in mysql making us need $200? Yikes.
edit: Astarte, any fruistration in that post was not directed at you, just the situation

Understood, ita. I just wish I knew enough to be helpful instead of a parrot creature.

He's going to talk to his server admin about that. But it's not really a long term solution since we'll most likely start to creep up again on connections.
ETA:

I've already had one person who was willing to move a site over contact me. Maybe a few other people who are interest could email me and we'd have a better idea on what the monthly cost would work out to be for you?
