Hi, You can implement this without any extra thread. Pooling doesn't need threads, but amost all pool and cashe implementations use extra threads( it does nothing meaningful). Idea to use "timeout" is not very good, only crapy application needs this, I think it is good to have it for debug, but in this situation pool must fail and report error, not to try "find solution".
