Persistent connection to database

@cysquan yes I think persistent connection is creating problems in peak hours, it simply give me the following error

-----------------
A Database Error Occurred
Unable to connect to your database server using the provided settings.
-----------------

while in off peck hours it works flawlessly!

first I thought it was because I'm not using persistent connections unaware of that $db['default']['pconnect'] in database.php is already set to TRUE.

I'm setting it FALSE now, will post if I get the same issue again!!
