If you don't do an explicit disconnect, the module should do it for you when the handle goes out of scope or as part of the garbage collection process when the script ends. However, that doesn't always happen. I had a script connecting to a pervasive db and didn't have an explicit disconnect. Latter I learned that connections weren't being disconnected which caused the db to lockup when it reached the max connections.
The next time this problem comes up connect to the mysql cli or you can use phpmyadmin to run the following command.
show full processlist;
That will show you the connections and processes being executed.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
