Goal

What's the meaning of Threads_connected and Threads_running? One mentions connections, the other threads:

• Threads_connected
  • The number of currently open connections.
• Threads_running
  • The number of threads that are not sleeping.

The sleeping state means the threads is not running? How long I can release the sleeping thread '?

The thread is the same as the session ?
