[Labs-l] Tool Labs slow + MySQL connection errors

I am also having troubles with  "db-issues (lost connection) occurred when
accessing tools-db."  from the webserver.  I'm also getting "Could not
connect to database: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'tools-db' " errors.

A few weeks ago, the database problems were only related to
tools-webgrid-04.   I just stopped and started the webserver to have it run
on a different webgrid and things started running smoothly again.  Not sure
which webgrid is which, but when doing a qstat, it was running on the 2nd
webgrid in the list.  It is now running on the 4th.
