Are you saying that you have a page that chews up 5 HTTP connections,
and each uses PHP heavily, and you reload that page every 5 seconds?
Maybe you shouldn't do that...
Stretch it out to 10 seconds and see where your load goes.
Find out which of the 5 sessions is most expensive (slowest). Can you
cache the results of that one? How about the second slowest? Can you
cache ANYTHING to make the application faster?

Oh. Well, with no recoding you can:
#1. Buy more hardware, and build a server farm.
#2. Buy the Zend Cache
#3. Install some other Cache product (most of which aren't as
good/fast/solid as Zend Cache, imho)
Disclosure: I was formerly employed by Zend and am at least as biased
as anybody else on this list, if not more so. :-)
