    Your application will not freeze due to Thread.
    You know the integrity of your code.

    Can I use thread for queries working with QSqlQuery and QSqlQueryModel? I am not sure. What about sharing connections (that is not allowed) between threads, and sharing queries?

      Aren't those drivers a part of Qt (eg. QPSQL for Postgres), it's not external driver.

      Those use client libraries provided by the SQL database system like libmysqlclient for MySQL. To see whether this is an issue in Qt or database system you can try to execute exactly the same query over VPN with the client application of your database system.

        Good point. I checked the same query over OpenVPN with LIMIT 25,000 - 200,000 records in Qt and in plain psql. In Qt QSqlQuery::exec() almost always freezes, while psql never.

          I tested it and it turns out it freezes even in non GUI applications, so it doesn't have to do anything with the GUI thing.

          I just started QSqlQuery::exec() in non GUI app and it freezes forever over OpenVPN, while the same code works ok over LAN or on localhost. On LAN sometimes QSqlQuery::exec() returns false which is ok, but never freezes forever.

            The codes above are thread codes I've tried for you.
            I've already shared critical parts. The rest are standard thread class and database connections. It is up to you how much you can use within the integrity of your code.
            SQLite does not allow concurrent operations to the same table. Other than that, you will have no problems. You can create a new SQLite connection in a thread, or you can include your connection class in a thread class. I have used both cases. I like to manage it myself instead of the model. I am using QTableWidget instead of QTableView. So I can't comment much on your situation.
            Regards.

              @petar You can check Qt bug tracker and file a bug if there is nothing yet for this issue

                I've already done this but got the answer from Christian Ehrlicher that this is probably a bug inside the libpq Postgres lib and that there is nothing they can do about it (concerning Qt).

                  @petar You can comment in the bug and write that you tested without Qt and it worked.

                      Thanks, I just did that, but Christian is a tough guy, hehe.

                        Although it's been a while, here is my solution.
                        I experienced a similar issue when connection was lost while a query was running.
                        For PostgreSQL, there is an option to set a timeout in TCP connection: tcp_user_timeout
