查了一些资料，修改了以下三个参数，重启后依然没起作用。

mysql>show variables like 'connect_timeout';
mysql>show variables like  'net_read_timeout';
mysql>show variables like  'max_allowed_packet';

仔细检查dbServers.xml配置后发现factoryConfig中
<property name="password">password</property>             
默认是被注释掉的，注释取消后正常。
<factoryConfig class="com.meidusa.amoeba.mysql.net.MysqlServerConnectionFactory">
                        <property name="manager">${defaultManager}</property>
                        <property name="sendBufferSize">64</property>
