I'm pretty sure that even in 1.2.x and master each replication with a remote source still requires one dedicated TCP connection to consume the _changes feed. Replications with a local source have always been able to use a connection pool per host:port combination. That's not to downplay the significance of the rewrite of the replicator in 1.2.x; Filipe put quite a lot of time into it.
