I going to work on test case over weekend.
Initial quick and dirty attempts to reproduce outside of complicated
production environments provided no results yet.
What I almost sure now that reproducing of the bug requires a mix of very
active connections to the database (with a lot of requests per second) with
semi-idle connections.
And that transient problem affects only these semi-idle connections.
I will provide an update when I get more information.
Kind Regards,
Maksym
