Yeppers, leaning that way pretty hard right now.
But I do like the idea of keeping the connection (unless it throws a
1466 error) until such time as the user goes idle for a length of X
minutes/seconds. There are a few places in my app that the user might be
browsing around, skipping from one document to the next and
reestablishing the connection each time in that scenario would be killer
for performance.
Some brief, simple testing is showing about a 1.5 second overhead for
making the connection (as compared to it already being there.)
Obviously, with more traffic or noise or poor packet alignment, that
could expand rapidly and create sludge.
Thanks Matt!
Mike

As was mentioned already, you gotta double check your connection
status each time you want to talk back to the mothership...
As to whether or not to maintain one connection or establish one each
time (my preference in my limited experience), kinda depends on the
sort of conversation you wanna have - are you 'sending letters' or
'having a chat' ?
I feel that if you are double checking status anyways, you might as
well just re-establish the connection handle in the first place.
