[Proxool-developer] On the number of connections in a pool during its lifetime

[Jean-Henry B. <ber...@ne...>]

Hi,
I somehow lived with the impression that once a pool is defined and 
started, is will go
on and create connections on demand (limited by the maximum number of 
connections
and guided by the values of prototype-count and 
maximum-new-connections), but if the
activity in the system gets low, it will go back to the minimum number 
of connections
(of course, after the lifetime of each connection goes of). In my latest 
long run tests
on my system I noticed that this is not the case and rechecking the docs 
I realize that
there's actually no direct reference to this type of behavior.
Then, was my assumption wrong? If not, then I must miss something in the 
configuration
somehow. If yes, what would be a workaround? To programatically shut 
down the
pools and restart them from time to time?
