I have a process I was thinking of making into a multithreaded daemon

to open the database every time a new client wanted service.
On my system it takes less than one millisecond to open a connection
to a MySQL server (located on a different system.) Do you find that
connection time problematic? This is about the same amount of time
it takes to fork in the first place.
Normally this would be true, if the MySQL server is on the same network,
but if it's not, connection time depends entirely on the latency between
the OP's running system and the MySQL server, such is the case if it is
across the internet; it will surely take longer than a millisecond. But
then again, that would hardly be an ideal setup, but it's not unheard
of.
