I have a server that is running mysql and it's using a lot of memory. I run:
mysql > show status like '%onn%'; +--------------------------+-------+ | Variable_name | Value | +--------------------------+-------+ | Aborted_connects | 4 | | Connections | 98609 | | Max_used_connections | 20 | | Ssl_client_connects | 0 | | Ssl_connect_renegotiates | 0 | | Ssl_finished_connects | 0 | | Threads_connected | 1 | +--------------------------+-------+ But then if I run 'show processlist' as the root user I don't see anything. I've tried google for this but It always comes up with stuff related to connection errors. IfCould someone could please just explain why I can't see the connections and how to actually go in and see them I would?
