HI there, I'd like to know what professional developers do when the maximum number of connection in a connection pool has been reached. What should be done with requests that don't get a connection? Should the max connection set to a very high number hoping that the number of requests served concurrently will be lower? Is it a way to set to -1, thus no limit is active?
I think no web application wants to print out "maximum number of connections exceeded. please try again later". I for myself would prefer to have a debug log or so to track if the number of concurrent connection has some peaks to at least know what the current maximum of concurrent connections is. I wonder why this is not part of the dbcp.commons package. Shouldn't connection tracking become a part of it? thx alot Johannes
