Hey,

looks like you're using pconnects with a high timeout value. You have over
600 processes on the poor machine. 588 of those are sleeping, but they still
burn CPU cycles. Either switch your scripts from pconnect to plain connect
or lower the timeout value for inactive connections (in your my.cnf)  to
something below 5 minutes (the default is rather high, 4 or more hours).
This should fix you up in no time at all. :-)

Regards,

Felix
