Having a web-server (don't know actually whoset it up, it's my heritage).
Few hours ago it started working very (extremely!) slow, mysqld oftenly fails requests.
/var/log/mysqld.log is empty (well, it says, mysqld started, and so on, but nothing regarding today)
/var/log/apache2/access_log is full of such lines:

Guys, what's that? How to heal this?
I read internal dummy connections happen sometimes, but sending internal requests at 1000/sec frequency isn't freaking normal!
How to find out the reason of this?
