lately i did sth similar in one of our servers, to keep track of active, idle
and idle in transaction connections so as to make some optimization in the
connection pooling and i didn't notice any serious io activity there (had
the cron job run every minute). so imho unless the server is seriously io
bound at the moment, you won't notice any difference
