Re: MySQL Server crashes - spawning too many threads.

No, the threads will sleep for an amount of time dependent on the activity of the server. MySQL keeps a "pool" of user thread objects active because it is less expensive to re-use a pooled user thread object than re-create one. I'm not sure on the specifics of when and if user threads are destroyed from the pool, but you could check the source if you're curious.
