Hi,
I've started mysql with the parameter -O wait_timeout=1000 and verified
that it is set using show variables. Yet I routinely see lingering
processes with times over 1100 and higher. I have about 1000 active
database users at the moment, most are connecting via php pages and I had
been running out of connections. I could have increased the number of
connections, but I chose rather to lower the wait_timeout instead.
Should I be expecting timeouts in excess of 100 seconds beyond the value
that I set? That is, is wait_timeout more of a guideline than a hard
limit?
Regards,
Gary "SuperID" Huntress
