Just started using mysqli. If I'm working with small data sets on small websites (traffic-wise), do I really need to use these all the time?

$result->close(); $mysqli->close();

also, for someone doing custom php & mysql work, without a framework, is mysqli the general preferred way of interacting with mysql?
