* Read about configuring and using persistent database connections (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pg-pconnect.php) with PHP
Though make sure you understand the ramifications of using persistent connections. You can quickly exhaust your connections by using this and also cause other issues for your server.
If you do this you'll probably have to adjust postgres to allow more connections, which usually means lowering the amount of shared memory each connection can use which can also cause performance issues.
I'd probably use pgpool-II and have it handle the connection stuff for you rather than doing it through php.
