AFAIK, creation of connection from DB is expensive. This is one of the reasons why we need connection pooling.

Hi, I would appreciate any help on this: I got approximate same timing on following two: case 1: create 1 jdbc connection and issue 4 queries sequentially case 2: create 4 jdbc connections and issue 4 queries via 4 different threads at the same time The timing is done around statement.execQuery(query), so overhead of multithreading can be ignored. I would think case 2 should be faster, but it was not. Any idea? Thanks a lot PS: the mysqld server 4.1.1a is running with 16 threads __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Friends. Fun.
