Subject: Persistent connection in PostGresSQL
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I have some questions for you all,
What is the difference between a persistent connection and a regular one
in postgres?
If I read /server-status after some queries with pg_pconnect() I see a
lot of active sessions there.
In which cases it is reasonable to use a persistent conection and in
which is not?
