Mysql server huge memory consumption

1.5k views Asked by At

On Ubuntu, executing the "top" command shows that mysqld constantly uses 61.9% of the memory.(when idle). I ran "show processlist" on the mysql server and it is idle. Can anyone explain what might be happening?

Open my.cnf and add this at the end: performance_schema=0

Restart your services. From 620MB I have now 38MB memory used.
