   I like the hybrid approach as well. I'm not excited about adding this 
configuration to though `extra` - I think it would deserve its own database 
columns, especially considering the table holding these records is unlikely to 
be massive, thus making migrations manageable. Unstructured data in an RDBMS is 
a pretty strong antipattern that I'd like to avoid exacerbating in this case.
   
   I think there is a valid use-case for un-capped pools, especially when the 
database connections are to datastores like BigQuery and Athena. Anywhere that 
supports massively concurrent access. Capped pools are more important for 
systems like Redshift, Postgres, MySQL, etc. where too many connections open 
can cause difficulty. I can put together a proof of concept of a 
Redis-lock-based, capped, distributed pool and we can take a look. I expect to 
be able to get to it in a couple of days.
