Have you measured the real gain in using persistent connections at all?
I measured it about one year ago on a linux box. Swichting from multi-user-pg_connect to single-user-pg_pconnect was a big improvment on that box -- 50% and more on pages with just 1-2 simple SELECT queries. I haven't done tests on BSD though.
