That is a dangerous assumption. Retrieving a small amount of data from
a large, slow database server can take a long time - particularly if
you're re-establishing the connection each time.
Are you using pooled persistent connections to PostGIS with a FastCGI
MapServer?
Ed / Stephen,
In my experience connection cost for PostGIS is very very modest and
FastCGI does not offer a worthwhile advantage for PostGIS.
However, the general statement about dangerous assumptions is right on!
Best regards,
