Thanks Paul, I am confused with these two variables in the server status:
Connections: 114577 Threads_created: 12759 Could you explain the difference between these two variables? "Connections" should be the number of connection attemplts to the MySQL server. Does this counts slave connections? Cause they are usually permanent connections. "Threads_created" - Number of threads created to handle connections. Thank you very much!
