    If I make connections with the MySQLi PHP module, is there any point of closing connections when the script is ending?

    If I am at the end of the PHP script, should I just leave the connections open?

    They will close at the end of the file automatically, only persistent connections will remain open until you explicitly close them - so no, you don't need to
