I am closing the connections right after using them, via the unbind()
method, which according to the docs for python-ldap disconnects from the
directory server.  I could use a request callback to unbind, but where
should I put the connection object when the request starts up?  Also, I
don't need the connection object for every request.  I guess what I'm
really asking is this: If I have a connection I want to use from multiple
threads (and i'm not worried about blocking while request threads are
waiting for the connection object to free up), where should that instance
live?

Thanks!
