Interesting. I slightly reformatted your commands for both speed and to minimise the time between them: (lsof -n| grep '^mysqld' | grep ESTABLISHED | wc -l) & (netstat -n | grep 3306 | grep ESTABLISHED | wc -l) & wait
I get the occasional couple of connections difference, but mostly it turns out equal, and the difference is never as dramatic as in your case. I wonder what's causing that... ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Reindl Harald" <h.rei...@thelounge.net> > To: "Mailing-List mysql" <mysql@lists.mysql.com> > Sent: Monday, 27 February, 2012 3:23:49 AM > Subject: file descriptor leak? > > mysql-5.5.21 > > has someone an idea what this large difference between > "netstat" and "lsof" means? am i right that this may be > a descriptor leak leading to troubles over the long? > > the full "lsof"-output shows all hosts ever connected > to the server multiple times as "ESTABLISHED" -- Bier met grenadyn Is als mosterd by den wyn Sy die't drinkt, is eene kwezel Hy die't drinkt, is ras een ezel -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
