In my limited testing with a recent SVN build 
(http://nightly.roundcube.net/trunk/roundcubemail-trunk-r938-20071210.tgz 
from Dec 10th), it doesn't use persistent connections, but apparently it 
does cache stuff in its MySQL database, which will help somewhat.

It *does* tell the user about new mail which is a nice feature that 
Prayer hasn't got!
