Kinda. The client is definitely fragile; I mostly work around this by opening a new connection every time I want to use it. This is reasonable because we don't make too many calls and the connection is over a local network.

The problem I'm trying to fix here is definitely in ganapati, not in Hadoop or Thrift.
