So with skip-name-resolve in my.cnf (and MySQL restarted), it should be okay to have [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the GRANT table since localhost resolves without DNS lookup? Or do I need to specify [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sorry, just need to clarify this bit before changing a few things. Thanks again.

For the longest time, I've had a strange problem with MySQL. Basically, after a certain amount of time--sometimes a few days, sometimes a couple weeks--its CPU usage will go from a steady 20-30% to 80-90%. Actual load and number of queries is the same, nothing else changes. If I shutdown
