Well it might not be broken anymore, but I haven't seen any evidence of
a speed increase (quite the opposite in fact). What we did instead was
write a very small abstraction layer so that any page request would only
use 1 database connection. We're running on dual 2.8 GHz Xeons for our
web server and db machine and taking on over 500,000 hits per day. Some
of our pages are very data intensive (http://www.mcgill.ca/calendar/ for
example).

maybe pg_pconnect() isn't all it is cracked up to be? Anyone else here
have good experiences with it?
