One thing you should have in mind is DBI is not thread safe! So, working with 'pure' DBI + threads is a dangerous way because the treatment of this thing will be stay by your own. And believe me! This a very boring task!

If you're using( or want to use ) some database abstraction, you can search for DBIx::Class namespace. There are various pooling solutions. Google refs

But if you don't want to use database abstractions, I recommend for you AnyEvent::DBI and/or AnyEvent::Tools CPAN refs .

Cheers!
