Hey there PHP fiends, I have a bit of cookie here. We're designing a PHP based app that uses MySQL as the data storage. Scalability is an issue, we want to be able to handle up to 10000 people utilizing the system (not at once of course). Question is, should I be connecting and disconnecting from the DB on each operation or increase the maximum number of allowed connections with MySQL and connect just once.
