The >connection overhead in MySQL is minimal. Has anyone created a table showing the connection times of the various databases? Like MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, Interbase etc.? Then you could say Oracle was 4xMySQL, or 3xInterbase etc.. I think it would give developers a better understanding whether they need persistent connections or not. At least it would show them the overhead involved in connecting to a database. Brent _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
