Its a first for me too.
I could conceive of a 'DisconnectAfterQuery' flag that would disconnect after 
every SQL query was finished, but Im reluctant to add it since I dont think 
it would be widely useful, and when it was used it would significantly slow 
things down.

Do I understand from the below that you are connecting to MS-SQL from Radiator 
running on a FreeBSD box?

We havent heard of similar behaviour, even from FreeBSD to MS-SQL. It is 
possible that using keep-alives or similar might alleviate the problem?

Cheers.
