So there are 2 theories: 1.Godaddy simply set a quite short maximum of connection time. : Workarround => mysql_close(); 2.Godaddy changes port in an unknown interval(would need some research to find it out). : Workarround => mysql_close(); Maybe mysql_free_ressources also can help a bit,but i dont think so(just give it a try :) so the final solution seems to be to close the godaddy mysql connection as fast as possible. close,connect ... probably wont cause your server to crash(not really similiar to DOS) so no worries! yo,im also on godaddy

I had a silly plugin that got spammed and then decided to query all the spams, 50k rows at a time! :( You can guess how my host reacted!
