MySQL connections

[mbaze]

When you say that all plans come with 30 MySQL connections, what exactly does that mean?

I want to use a software program that will open a persistent DB connection every time it loads a page.

Hi Michael,
When we say 30 connections, we mean 30 concurrent connections hitting the mysql server at the same time.

Which program do you use?

We also have some good threads on this topic as well.

Thanks, Steven. I'll check out the threads. I'll probably be using a personal publishing program called pMachine (www.pmachine.com), which uses a PHP/MySQL backend. It's theoretically much less CPU-intensive than Movable Type, which has been discussed elsewhere on these boards.
