Hi All,
I have noticed huge spikes in server load recently. Load
average sometimes hits 50.0 ; however after removing unwanted mail
alerts from cron load has dropped to 2.0 to 5.0; I guess even 2.0 is
a high load for the kind of usage I have. Mysqld seems to top in CPU
usage.
mysqladmin processlist always reports a dead thread. How do I flush
these dead threads ?

Any suggestions on improving the server performance ? What else should
I monitor ? I guess mysql is the culprit... any suggestions on
optimizing ?
Thanks
Deepan
