Thomas, 1. Yes different servers for webserver and database is the key. They have competing priorities. 2. The 100kb estimate is db-dependent, no? P. > And I disagree with this view. > > If you've got a server with 512 MB RAM and running the webserver and the > db-server on t

And I disagree with this view. If you've got a server with 512 MB RAM and running the webserver and the db-server on the same machine, 100 idling mysql-processes are a HUGE overhead. At most if not every http-request requires a mysql-connection. I did many benchmarks and I got a huge decrease of

it will reduce the load for sure! MySQL is very fast in opening and closing connections at least if the database-server and webserver are on the same machine. I don't know how it will perform on different machines. Thomas On Wed, 14 Aug 2002 14:40:31 +0100 "John Wards" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote

I am running a website which generates around 100,000 pageviews a day and I am wondering if I stop using persistent conections to the MySQL database and use normal open and close conections this would reduce the load onto my server? Most conections are either made through my "main" file or the ph
