But my point is that the communication overhead is still gained by process
based systems. True they don't have the same pooling ability, as does a
threaded process management. Overhead saved using pconnect is that which is
being debated here.

Hm...ok, let's see here. Persistant connection vs. non.
Pros and cons...*ponder*

When you call pconnect when a persistant connection is already available, it
is approximately the same speed as when you call connect for
I agree with James on this one - surely it makes sense if php is running as
a server module and can keep hold of connections to utilise the performance
advantage of pconnect.
I'd be interested to know if there are any disadvantages to this, I may need

really rare.
When in doubt, use connect. If you know of a specifically good reason to use
it, then feel free.
But I personally have never had a situation where pconnect worked better
than connect.
