Databases

Always 'close' connections

When writing your own php/mysql code, it's important you do so in a secure and responsible manner. One thing to make sure of is that your script calls to close each mysql connection after the script has run.

If you do not do this then multiple mysql connections may be open at the same time and this will affect server performance. Periodically we search for bad scripting practices and will contact clients should we find any.
