Bugs in the MySQL code, which our code hits.
Which bugs are these?
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Those bugs don't cause any extra resource usage. They just cause the count of open connections to be incorrect.
I don't know of any bugs in MySQL that cause the board to consume extra resources.

Well, money is a resource, and all of our shared servers charged us for the miscounts.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Rob, were you the one working on MARCIE?

Hmm. Odd. The previous host correlated the incidences of us eating every connection with the CPU usage spiking and bringing server performance to its knees.
You're saying there's something else we should be looking at in our code? Did you notice anything while you were working on the filter?

As a webhost, I can say, without question, that a connection is considered a resource.

We were spiking the CPU, weren't we, Kristen? At the same time as eating all the connections, which is why we were capped and the code rapidly became useless and we left?

Yes, you were. I need an analogy. Gimme a minute.

I've gone to the analogy well and the well is dry.
Basically, yes, connecting to the database uses server resources. Querying the database also uses server resources but not nearly as much. Which is why connections and MySQL usage are so closely monitored and can get you TOSed out on your ass.
