Hi!  So, I have a traditional Flask app using flask-sqlalchemy and 
sqlalchemy ORM, served with uwsgi.  Uwsgi is set with processes=4 and 
threads=4.  Yesterday I added grequests to improve a single area of the app 
a bit (I had to do a couple hundred external API calls to build a single 
data structure).  No problem- except that I started getting errors like 

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/flask_sqlalchemy/__init__.py", line

MySQL Connection not available. 


>From playing around with it, importing grequests was the line of code that 
made the error appear/dis-appear.  Further experimenting shows that `import 
gevent.monkey; gevent.monkey.patch_all()` anywhere in the code breaks the 
app as well.  This doesn't happen on every request, and I am not actually 
using greenlets or the gevent loop anywhere in the endpoints I am 
accessing.  For now this is easy enough for me to just rip out grequests, 
but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to why this is happening?
