This eliminates all of the overhead involved with repeatedly opening and closing connections, and allows individual page requests to be much faster. | |

However, how do you close the connection? in the docs it says the mysql_close() doesn't work. Do you just rely on mysql server to close it when it has been inactive for so long. I'd like to know that once all the work is done that the connection is closed. | |
