I'm using Tomcat 5.0.18 on Linux. My database server is Microsoft SQL Server 2000. I'm using Microsoft's JDBC driver. When I stress-test my application with JMeter, I can see over 80 connections on my database server, and they are not released until I stop tomcat... Is removeAbandoned parameter not supposed to take care of these connections???
I am not entirely sure here, so please correct me, if I'm wrong, but...
you are using dbcp, right? So, isn't the pool _supposed_ to reuse open connections instead of closing them and reopening anew for each request?
I think what you should do is choose a reasonable max number of connections and then stress-test while look for a dbcp exception indicating that no new connection could be acquired. If you get one, either removeabandoned is not working properly, of (more likely) your application keeps a hold on connections that therefor are not concidered abandoned. If you don't get an exception, you can be quite sure you will never see more connections than you specified.
