I don't think those two are related. After an hour of operation, it's expected to have zero "Free" memory; unix uses unused memory as disk cache, so Free memory is wasted memory. More important questions are: Are you swapping? and What is the current memory usage of mysql? -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
