I would say it should. You might also look at static definitions in the
listener and use PRESPAWN in the listener to precreate some number of
dedicated server processes to avoid (or pay in advance instead of at
connection time) the overhead of the fork the listener makes for each
dedicated server. I think there are also DB-resident connection pools in 11g, but I think that was a feature aimed specifically at PHP--not sure how it works, but may help you if you can learn enough about it (and are using a version that supports the feature).
