I tested MariaDB 5.5.23 with sysbench.
And that time, Aborted_clients metric value is not much grew up.

But, After I applied MariaDB to production database,
Aborted_clients is growing up ever even though normal close of client side.

So, I tested same code with MySQL 5.5.23 community version. But it's okay.

And, MariaDB(with ThreadPool)'s memory usage is really stable under 2GB(Buffer pool is not including)
when I test with sysbench.
But in real service (java application), memory usage is growing up over 6~7GB(without BufferPool).
I'm not sure Aborted_clients metric is related with this memory usage.
Could you check this out ?

Thanks.
