Angel,

        I've been following your story, but I thought that I have to tell
everybody that even the version 3.1.2.40 was suffering from the same
illness! By the way I did increase the size of the buffer pool now
BufPoolSize=98304 ... and this morning is still up, but you never know
... stay tuned! ;:)

Thank you

Ciao Mauro
