Hi,
One of the main points of connection pooling is to bound the number of connections you 
have.  It's a bad design to define a connection pool that doesn't meet expected loads. 
 If you know your app will need 10 connections concurrently, define 10 as maxActive.  
Don't define 5 and ask it to grow ;)
