Yes, this is possible.  When evicting idle instances due to
minEvictableIdleTimeMillis exceeded, the evictor does not take into
account the number of idle instances remaining in the pool and it
performs the evict, ensure min idle actions in sequence.  If you
want to avoid the destroy / recreate scenario, you can use
softMinEvictableIdleTimeMillis instead.

I am not sure what you mean here.  This could lead to the idle
instance count hitting zero, but client threads will still get
served as long as maxTotal is not exceeded.  Client threads will
create instances to serve requests when the pool is empty, as long
as there is capacity to do so, and evictor destroy actions
immediately create capacity.  Borrowers may have to incur makeObject
(create physical connection in DBCP case) latency, but they will get
served.
