>From the PHP documention:
"First, when connecting, the function would first try to find a (persistent)
link that's already open with the same host, username and password. If one
is found, an identifier for it will be returned instead of opening a new
connection."
According to this, and my own experience also, you can "open" as many
pconnects you want without causing any trouble.
