I am using Squirrel 3.0.1 on OSX 10.5.7. I have to connect to databases over a VPN and for some reason the connection goes down rather frequently.
1. Squirrel doesn't tell me about this, which is pretty annoying.
2. Squirrel hangs when I start typing and trying to use code completion. Completely unresponsive, won't even quit through the operating system. I have to use 'ps' to find the PID and 'kill' it.

    I am using SQuirreL 3.0.3 On Windows XP and when the database drops the connection after 20 min of inactivity the next command I execute is always hard on my patience limit until I get the error message.

    But SQuirreL does come around eventually (one day I will time it) but it feels definitely too long. During that time I cannot switch to other tabs; typing in advance often results in a messed up command.

    Maybe we should open a feature request for an optional heartbeat function? (Although I am not sure whether it will help with the VPN problem)
