I am having similar issues. I moved a copy of mysqld_safe to init.d and removed the old startup script, this had the effect of lowering the number of processes from about 30 something to 7 or 8. However mysqld_safe now appears as a subprocess of rc and under mysqld_safe is mysqld and under that are the 7 or 8.
I know that in some situations there should be a few process however on an exact replica of this machine only mysqld_safe with a single subproccess is running.

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?
