Recently our DB, which is running MySQL 3.23.52, started experiencing intermittant load spikes, of the magnitude of 200+ load averages. Normally, our high spike is about 0.90 load. When this starts happening, we notice a lot of processes "cleaning up" within the database. Can someone clue me in as to what cleaning up means, and what the possible cause of this is?
