 Hi,

I have almost finished making a set of scripts that would communicate with
maybe 1k sites to start with...

I'm sorry I cannot give you more details about the scripts but this guy is
really nervious and had me sign an NDA etc etc

but what i would like to know is; would there be a problem with connecting
to the database many hundred/thousand times a minute? (esp on a shared
server as this guy and I cannot afford a dedicated at this point)

On a shared server? Most likely yes. Either you'll kill the mysql server (for everyone) or they will have you set up with limited connections.

I'm assuming you're using a mysql database:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/grant.html <-- see MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/too-many-connections.html

Other databases will have similar limitations.

I hope you're not connecting/disconnecting between queries...
