That seems to have resovled it. I never use pre-built binaries. I compiled it myself with gcc 2.95.4. So, that should not be a problem. I do not have the glibc problem; and I have indeed been reading about it (but basically ignored it, as it does not affect me). But the extra high CPU load issue is new to me, and a bit worrysome. Or is it all related? Sorry if I sounded a bit panicky. But processes that grab exorbitant amounts of CPU cycles are really a bad dream; and if MySQL starts doing it, it becomes a nightmare. :) The mysqld daemon is pretty much the engine of my entire server now. So, it really needs to remain stable. - Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
