Do you have requests that are taking more than a minute?  It looks like
your frontend server is assuming the Catalyst app died, when in reality
it might just be taking a long time.

I'm not sure what would cause the session stuff to behave differently.
Probably time to add some $c->log->debug messages to your app in key
places.
