The process mysqld-max-nt.exe runs all the time. Why?

Question

I do not have MySql in my computer; only SQL Server 2008 Developer Edition.

Why is this exe file/process running all the time; and looks like it is taking a lot of my CPU and VM...

Any guidance/suggestions would be of immense help.

Will my sql server 2008 run "normal" if I disable this service?

Thaks in advance

Answer 1

The Process doesn't relate to SQL Server 2008 and will not impact to sql server 2008, the process relate to one of the following
1. MySQL Servers and Clients
2. Quest Software.
3. Benchmark Factory for Databases by MySQL

Answer 2

Adrian,

Thanks a lot for quick and clear response.

I do have TOAD (to work on Oracle10g), which is a Quest software product; and may be impacted if I disable this process.

So, whenever I need TOAD, I'll enable this process, else, "stop" it...

Is tha okay?

If the process taking alot your CPU Resources, Enable it when you need it, but it is better to ask the Quest Sofware Customer Service to get detail information about this behaviour.
