Re: Change wait_timeout parameter

I would argue that it is the application that needs changing, not any MySQL setting.
Do you really want open connections lying around, not doing anything useful but still using up database resources for 82,966,646 milliseconds? Hint: In the Real World, that's just a touch shy of 23 hours, 3 minutes!
From the application's perspective, database connections should be opened, used [closed] and trashed as rapidly as possible, to keep things tidy (connection pooling usually takes care of the overhead of this).

Regards, Phill W.
