## Description

=> https://github.com/genenetwork/genenetwork2/issues/418 From GitHub

Global search '*' causes loads of aborted connections... I mean

```
  2020-08-15  2:53:58 140273206434560 [Warning] Aborted connection 45219 to db: 'db_webqtl' user: 'webqtlout' host: '127.0.0.1' (CLOSE_CONNECTION)
```

generating 6Mb of log file info.


In fact, every row in the table has a SQL query that does not close the connection properly.

## Resolution

The new xapian search does not use the SQL database at all. Therefore issue may be closed.
