mysql_connect() vs mysql_pconnect

Recommended Posts

mysql_connect() is like a door at walmart - opens when someone enters and closes behind them

mysql_pconnect() is like a door at sams/costco - stays open and anyone can walk in

 

basically a pconnect will remain open on the server, thus when a request comes it, it does not have to create a connection and then execute the query...it simply takes the connection pointer and tags a query through it.
