Pconnects are absolutely necessary if we use tsearch2, because it

We've been using pconnect for exactly the same reason. Though startup
time for our dictionary is even higher (around 2 seconds). The problem
is that persistent connections in PHP are not clean implemented, they
can get randomly garbage collected. The problem seems well known, though
I'm unaware of any fix. I think it's best to use pgbouncer and plain
connect ATM. Additionally, as mentioned earlier, using pconnect under
the Apache webserver is not a good idea at all, at least not with it's
current architecture.
If the dictionary is not too large, you should store it directly in the
memory of the server. Therefore you can use Shared Memory
(http://www.php.net/shmop, http://de3.php.net/manual/en/ref.sem.php).
Another advantage of the solution is, that you have one dictionary for
all php-childs - so you do not waste memory by loading the dictionary
each request.
