Hi - Is it reasonable to have up to several hundred DBI database handles open and connected in one process? I am running a multi-threaded perl (5.8) server and would like thread-by-thread access to severl databases; the current threading module does not allow complex structures (like dbhs) to be declared as shared variables, so I am thinking of connecting/disconnecting at thread start/end time to save the overhead of connecting/disconnecting on each use (like Apache::DBI).
But my thread pool can grow to several hundred (configuration parameter). My server is robust - I think it can handle the overhead - but are there other considerations? Aloha => Beau; -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
