It's not a problem. The large number is the number of pageouts since restart, the number in parentheses is the number of pageouts in the last second. If you see the number in parentheses is non-zero frequently, then you're havinig paging. In this case you should set up and edit a my.cnf file to tune the memory parameters of mysqld so it doesn't page. The details of top can be found by typing 'man top' in the terminal window. --Ware Adams -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
