Happy new year to all....
I have almost the same problem, Running MySQL-MAX-2.32 on RedHat 8.0 on a P-IV,1024MB RAM,80GB IDE. The mysql spawns about 10-14 processes at a time, I have a script running which gathers router logs and puts them into the mysql database (about 1.6GB last count) then there are about 10 scripts running which are continuous scripts which are always sorting the data and putting them into their respective tables ...
My mem usage is about 1000MB almost all the time and the swap (1024MB partition) is about 10MB used at the most I know the RAM is the most preferred place to keep all the data, but when does the SWAP actually get used ....
more in depth explanation from all the great masters will be appreciated
thanks
