I used to think that require_once() was quite slow, and that doing your own:
if (!defined('smarty_class')){
define('smarty_class');
class Smarty{
...
}
}
was way more better.
It might depend on how *MANY* things you've already included...
So, you can paste that exact same code into your files, and it goes fast?
Don't Smary and DB do a lot of includes of their own?
And is DB using pconnect? If not, *THAT* will be your biggest bottle-neck
of all. Change that, and ab again.
Or, put it this way -- Move your pg_connect() into a connect.inc, and
require() that, and ab the joke page.
Your pg_connect() should be in a separate file not in your web-tree anyway.

Bottom line: Loading in files from the disk on a busy server with multiple
users (IE, 200 different web-sites' index.htm files to clog up the cache)
can get very slow unless your file cache can hold them all.
Zend cache will ameliorate this to a great extent -- as the file is loaded
once into RAM and left there.
