No, not yet. We thought we will give it a try next week.

That behaviour does fit perfectly to the picture we experienced. It
seems as if
the mysql connection is lost from time to time and that the mysql jdbc
driver did reconnect "in the background" automatically. Giving
Cayenne no
chance to recognize the lost. Cayenne would in that case continue to
work
and in the meantime some other process grabbed the same package of
primary keys
and our problems started.
Besides, I still haven't seen any "Duplicate key" messages from our
systems!
Thanks to all for this helpful discussion!
