Persistent connections?

[bplinson]

What would be the implications of have mysql.allow_persistent set to on in the php.ini but set to 0 in the vbulletin config.php? And visa-versa?

i would imagine higher load:cool:

[eva2000]

php.ini is server wide white config.php is site specific

if you had other php/mysql apps besides vB i.e. phpadsnew set with php.ini one enabled it will allow it to be enabled...

whether it causes better or worse performance that would depend on the app and the traffic patterns - only way to know is through trial and error testing yourself :)
