Somewhat difficult to explain in an easy statement right now so I'll let
this page do the talking:
http://www.zend.com/php5/articles/php5-mysqli.php
from what I can tell it isn't working with persitant connections, it's
making it easy to address certain database query results to various
variables, as well as letting the server know how the data will be
encoded ahead of time (making things faster ?). I've been playing
around with mysqli and mysql 5 beta for awhile, but have only got the
connection parts up and running so far. I'll find out more later.
