Actually, you want a few SPARE MySQL connections, so you can use the mysql
command line monitor to do things -- Particularly in case of a run-away
PHP/MySQL script which slams the server into over-drive... If you don't
have a connection available cuz they're all used up by Apache/_pconnect,
you can't log into mysql monitor and you can't use mysqladmin to bring it
down nicely and... Don't do that. :-)

Actually, MySQL already takes care of that as it allows 'max_connections + 1' clients to
connect, leaving the '+1' connection for the user(s) with SUPER privilege (that can
therefore issue a "SHOW PROCESSLIST" or nicely bring down the server).

Back to lurking, cheers everybody.
