CI_DB_driver Bug?

I've seen this happen on a project that I worked on before. I think the server settings had a 5 minute timeout and we were doing some long running processes that ended up losing connection.

You can use

Code:

$this->db->reconnect();

to restore your connection. We just did it periodically in our MY_Model. There was a bit of an overhead but things kept running that way.
