Jim, I couldn't tell from the page - with you having some experience with the DDConnectionBroker, I thought I'd shoot you a couple of questions:
Pool Instantiation Do I need to create this pool in an initialization servlet and put an instance of it in the servlet context? It looks like it's possible that using this 'pool' might result in a new pool for each servlet... which isn't really going to solve any problems for me. In practice, how have you noticed it to act? Connection Maintenance The site has this to say: In the future, the number of connections in the pool will vary from minConnections to maxConnections; minConnections will be available during slow times; maxConnections will be in the pool when busy. (This is not currently implemented.) What behavior have you observed? Does it just keep the increased number of connections? That doesn't sound very good either. Thanks so much!
