I'm not sure if this is a bug or an improvement, but I'm seeing a significant amount of this in my zabbix_server.log. The most interesting part is that my mysql server is on the same box with my data dir sitting on a SAN LUN and zabbix is connecting via a socket connection. The database isn't restarting; I have a feeling the code is losing it's connection due to the query below in addition to a timeout.

Is there any way to break this query up into multiple statements that operate on a smaller number of rows...like everytime an "OR" condition is thrown in the example below? That logical OR is actually a pain point in this query due to the number of items it has to lookup in the index.
