1) Caching

And if all that fails...

4) Caching

And mysqls query cache does that pretty well.

Indeed, but only if you're making a lot of repetitive queries to the database. However, since the OP wants to reduce the number of connections to the database, query caching may reduce the time each connection is held for it will not reduce the overall number of connections.

The point I'm trying to make is that while the query cache can be a huge improvement to some websites it's not a substitute for query optimisation.
