First paragraph of the link I sent you:
"Persistent connections are links that do not close when the execution
of your script ends. When a persistent connection is requested, PHP
checks if there's already an identical persistent connection (that
remained open from earlier) - and if it exists, it uses it. If it does
not exist, it creates the link. An 'identical' connection is a
connection that was opened to the same host, with the same username
and the same password"
