I use persistant database connections and I wonder, if one connection is always in use by one page or by more? Each thread will end up having a connection. Actually, it will have a connection for *each* username/password combination used to connect, if you have multiple MySQL users in mysql_pconnect(...)

More Apache children ==> More connections More MySQL username/passwords ==> More connections I assume a very large ISP with hundreds of customers has to: A) Give them all a common/shared username/password, *OR* B) Throw in a *LOT* of RAM to handle all the connections
C) Ban persistant connections. They are great if you only have one site on a server, but too costly when there are many different username/passwords to the various databases.
