Just out of interest, could you re-run the test using persistent
connections?
change mysql_connect to mysql_pconnect..

Thanks -- does the "persistent connection" thing hold the server up
until released? How does that work?
MySQL is threaded so will not be "held up" by any connection. Obviously
the more connections the more of certain resources it will be using, but
it doesn't block for every connection.
The exception, of course, being if you have something going on at the
MySQL protocol level such as LOCK TABLES or a transaction. That will
hold up certain other queries. But that's at a whole other layer.
