问题
In my PHP program I need to hit the database between 0 and 3 times on any given webpage request. I am using PDO to interact with MySQL. First I create a database connection using something like this:
$dbh = new PDO("mysql:host=$hostname;dbname=animals", $username, $password);
Then I do what I need to do and close the connection like this:
$dbh = null;
I open and close a connection 0-3 times right now, the same number of times I need to interact with MySQL.
My question is, should I be re-using this connection instead? My queries are not one after another, they are scattered throughout my program and I don't really think it would be easy to run them one right after another.
So is it better to create a new database connection and close it for each interaction (query) or to just leave the connection open and reuse it? Does it make any difference?
Thanks!
回答1:
For a typical website page, you should be reusing the same connection for all queries.
It's not worth it to spend time disconnecting and reconnecting.
回答2:
Unless your pages take a huge amount of time to run (huge being relative), then there's no point in relinquishing a connection. You'll end up wasting more cycles on connectiong/disconnecting than you do actually executing queries. MySQL's pretty lightweight as far as connections go, but it still adds up.
