# of MySQL process running...

With Apache 1.3.19, MySQL 3.23.43, and PHP4.0.6 compiled into Apache as a module, what determines how many MySQL processes are running at any given time? I have seen from 4-28 MySQL processes running at different times on the server.

Is it related to "thread_cache_size" (Mine is 128) setting? Is there a way to limit/control this? Just wondering how MySQL determines how many children to spawn of itself. Thanks.
