The pain starts when your max memory usage crosses what you have available. Check http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/memory-use.html - especially comments which calculate the needed memory for N connections for both innodb and isam. (mysqltuner.pl will also calculate that for you)
Hundreds of connections should be ok. Thousands... you should rethink it ;) If you want to improve connection pooling, look at the "Mysql proxy" project. Regards, Stanisław Pitucha Cloud Services Hewlett Packard
