I had Apache running on Win98 and doing a pretty demanding job (well, for a 350MHz K2) and it slowed the machine down noticeably. If the PHP script timed out the computer came back to like but if i closed the browser window or clicked stop it seemed to keep doing it. Maybe MySQL is finishing off the query it was last given until it terminates or whatever. If a big, complex query was sent through lots of records this one quesry could take a long time to sort out
