Hi,

I have a server which has been running for about a year now. It
started with kernel 2.4.19 and mysql 3.x it has since been continually
upgraded so that it is now kernel 2.4.20 and mysql 4.0.13. The server is
a Compaq server with dual Pentium II (Deschutes) 400MHz 512Kb cache
CPUs, 320Mb RAM and SCSI drives. The OS is Gentoo Linux.

>From the beginning it has behaved strangely - connections to mysql (be
that with the mysql textclient or from PHP) fails about 2 out of 3 times
in periods. Some times there are no problems, other times it's almost
impossible to connect. This behavior has been consistent from the start,
so it has been a problem when running both mysql 3.x and 4.0.x.
I have monitored the servers load and the loads are the same in the
periods when it fails as in the periods when it doesn't. I have tried
monitoring the mysql logs, but no entries show up upon the failed
connection attempts.
No other services malfunctions in this way, or indeed at all on the
server.

I have run out of ideas on how to debug this problem, can anybody here
help me?
