Mysql crashes in amazon linux We are trying to drop tables from mysql that is installed in amazon linux which the os is not able to handle and is very slow, mysql crashes as well or goes to the defunct mode. We have tried to execute the same on centos5.5 but the process was very fast and the mysql did not crash. The mysql configuration are the same on both the servers. Kindly tell us why this scenario happens ??.
