 A.2.6 `Too many connections'
 ----------------------------
 
 If you get a `Too many connections' error when you try to connect to the
 `mysqld' server, this means that all available connections are in use
 by other clients.
 
 The number of connections allowed is controlled by the `max_connections'
 system variable. Its default value is 100.  If you need to support more
 connections, you should restart `mysqld' with a larger value for this
 variable.
 
 `mysqld' actually allows `max_connections+1' clients to connect.  The
 extra connection is reserved for use by accounts that have the `SUPER'
 privilege.  By granting the `SUPER' privilege to administrators and not
 to normal users (who should not need it), an administrator can connect
 to the server and use `SHOW PROCESSLIST' to diagnose problems even if
 the maximum number of unprivileged clients are connected.   `SHOW
 PROCESSLIST' SHOW PROCESSLIST.
 
 The maximum number of connections MySQL can support depends on the
 quality of the thread library on a given platform. Linux or Solaris
 should be able to support 500-1000 simultaneous connections, depending
 on how much RAM you have and what your clients are doing. Static Linux
 binaries provided by MySQL AB can support up to 4000 connections.
