Hi, Usually, 'ps -ef|grep mysqld' shows:
root 1932 1 ... mysql 1962 1932 ... mysql 1963 1932 ... mysql 1964 1932 ... ... But today I noticed it's like this: root 1932 1 .... mysql 1962 1932 ... mysql 1963 1962 ... mysql 1964 1963 ... mysql 1965 1963 ... mysql 1966 1963 ... ... So what might have caused 1->1932->1962->1963->1964? Also there are 10 mysqld running. Does that mean there are that many connections established? Would anyboby shed some light or provide pointers? Thanks much in advance. Bing -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
