I think you're approaching the problem the wrong way. Either you're not bothered by the events that gets lost when the server legitimately "goes away", or you are.
If the record are that precious, you should have some kind of a caching mechanism on your side that will read from the fifo and store the records until you can send them to the Mysql server. It could be a simple thread that stores stuff into one end of the array, while your thread takes them out from the other end.
Otherwise, don't sweat the time you lose trying to reconnect to a server that has legitimately gone away - if you can't store the stuff you're not sending to the server, the events sent while the server is down are lost, anyway.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
