Open Stack

This is a great lead on 'pool_recycle'.  Thank you.  Last night I was
poking around in the sqlalchemy pool code but hadn't yet come to a
complete solution.  I will do some testing on this today and hopefully
have an updated patch out soon.

+1 for Carl's patch, and i have abandoned my patch..

About the `MySQL server gone away` problem, I fixed it by set
'pool_recycle' to 1 in db/api.py.
