I have an issue. Both with mysql pconnect enabled and disabled. Randomly, between every 5 mins or ever few hours the connections will jump by as much as 100 connections of more in the span of a a few seconds (5 - 15 seconds usually) then return back to normal.
However, during this peak/flood of connections. Apache (on seperate box) hits 100% cpu usage until the connects normalize. Also the apache httpd.exe RAM usuage increases at the same time. Question. 1) Does this sound like a mysql, php or apache issue? 2) Is there a config in either my.ini, php.ini or httpd.conf to stop this flooding?
