vBulletin works with all versions of PHP > 3.0.9 and MySQL > 3.22, and any webserver that can run PHP (Apache >= v1.0, IIS4 or IIS5, etc.). Safe mode can be on or off as can persistant connections.
What benefits or downside has the use of persistant connections to the mysql db ? .. Currently I do not use it, because I have no idea what happens if I do use it

You likely won't notice the difference unless you have a busy forum (or an overloaded server). As I understand it persistent connections means that MySQL connections are not closed when they're finished, but instead reused for other people. This means that the overhead of opening and closing connections is significantly lowered, but there are often more connections open at a time. If you don't use it, then each time a mysql connection is finished with it is closed and a new one is opened every time one is needed rather than reusing existing ones which aren't in use.
