So you want to make PHP multithreaded???
No, just the mysql queries.
Try pcntl_fork() to create a child process for each query.
Each child can make it's own MySQL connection.

Do *NOT* do this in a web-server environment, unless you have
EXTENSIVELY and EXHAUSTIVELY tested all your PHP extensions for
thread-safety!

I agree about the don't do that part - but what has process forking
got to do with thread safety?

AFAIK you shouldn't do that because it madness to fork a complete apache
process.


http://php.net/pcntl_fork
just plain says "Don't do that." for a reason...
