So, i've poked around quite a bit to determine if there's a way to control the number of children that start up with mysqld. Each takes about 2.5% of memory, and i'm working on an application that needs to prune where it can. Most of the time, the app is fairly standalone, and there aren't ever more than 2 or 3 clients attempting to connect to the database (and those are very low intensity transactions.)

I've started poking through the source to see if there's some place to throttle this, but if anyone has more insight than I, i'd appreciate it being shared.

These are threads. You always get 3, I forgot what each does. Then one p connection.
