Thanks Craig for your quick and very exhaustive answers!
I also read your work around in an earlier post on hot to create a minimum
number of connections in the pool:

Doing such an implementation, I can get maxIdle to work as an initialization
feature, but is there a work around to get make the pool manager to open
a new idle connection if all connections are borrowed?
And one last question:
What's maxActive's setting to not limit the number of connections?
Doesn't seem to work with 0 or -1.
Should I just set it to an arbitrary high number?
Thank you very much!
Stephen
