On the Heroku platform I always see an intermittent (and usually very rare) 
occurrence of "Connection reset by peer" on ALL external services -- Redis, 
database, etc. I believe this to be network-related and there's little you can 
do to prevent it.

Typically my application controller has several rescue_from(s) to deal with all 
of these exceptions, gracefully informing the user that there was a momentary 
problem and to please try again.

If it happens with frequency, figure out which external service is the problem 
and take it up with your hosting provider or the provider for the external 
service.
