As simple as possible:

<?php
require_once('Benchmark/Timer.php');
$timer =& new Benchmark_Timer();
$timer->start();

pg_pconnect('host=myhost dbname=database user=user');
pg_query("SET search_path TO myschema;");

$q = "SELECT u.login FROM users WHERE u.user_id = 1;";

$qr = pg_query($q);

print_r(pg_fetch_all($qr));

$timer->setMarker('Database');
$timer->stop();
$timer->display();
?>

Results:

pconnect: 0.001435995101928
connect:  0.016793966293335

It's factor 10 on such simple things on the BSD box.
