[Twisted-Python] Moderately-long running processes timing out in Twisted

I looked at the adbapi code and it appears the ConnectionLost exception is coming from there, not from cx_Oracle. At least that's what is in the error log:
2008-09-05 12:25:48-0400 [HTTPChannel,9003,127.0.0.1] adbapi closing: cx_Oracle
2008-09-05 12:25:48-0400 [HTTPChannel,9003,127.0.0.1] Connection lost.

I don't know what

means. I'm guessing there's some sort of issue with Oracle but our DBA didn't see anything obvious in his logs. Is there a way for me to tell what exactly the "exception caught here" is?

Hmm, it is kind of hard to say what the problem could be, without
seeing the code that is using adbapi and cx_Oracle.
When you say you are receiving ConnectionLost exceptions from cx_Oracle,
are they *really* from cx_Oracle, i.e., "ORA-03135 - Connection lost...",
or are they just the result of adbapi calling its connectionLost method?

I've used cx_Oracle with twisted many times, with many different workloads,
including stored procedures with OUT parameters, and it has always worked
as expected. If you are able to provide some code, this list might be
able to provide you with more prescriptive advice.
Hope this helps,
