This sounds like a firewall issue to me, but it could be a backend
running out of memory and the oom killer in linux killing it. I
believe oom killer logs to /var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages. Got
anything in those logs about that time for the oom killer?
If not, it could be a firewall, if you have one, between the app and
db boxes. If that's the case you can stop it from happening by
lowering the tcp keepalive settings.
