THIS. Many many thanks @cmwebdev !!

In my previous attempts I had also set the connection request like that:

```plaintext
    Mysql2::Client.new(host: options.host, username: options.username, 
                       password: options.password, database: options.database,
                       read_timeout: 3600, write_timeout: 3600, connect_timeout: 3600,
                       reconnect: true)

```

but what definitively did the trick was to tune the mysql server configuration to maximise buffers and timeouts.  
I’m noting down all I’m doing and in a few days I’ll post a comprehensive guide to SMF2 migration.
