I have a separate server for Mysql. I am noticing that the amount of used memory shown by Top is gradually increasing.
I don't have anything else on the server (no php) except for basic OS (fedora 13)
Some tables are myisam and some are innoDB. Used drupal 6.x so started originally with myisam and converted a few to innodb as required.
I know mysql is memory hog. But is this normal? Is there a way to tail MYSQL to have a limit?
Quite popular site so is this a result of number of connecttion? But then shouldn't it release the memory as time goes?
Anybody else seen this? using mysql 5.1.48
