Based on that I would check the FFI imports in your database library. In the best case (-threaded, 'safe', and thread-safe odbc), I think you'll find that N of these can run concurrently, but here your number of requests is likely to be much greater than N (where N is the number of threads the RTS created with +RTS -N).

HDBC-odbc has long used the wrong type of FFI imports, resulting in long-running database queries potentially blocking all other IO. I just checked, and apparently a patch was made to the repo in September that finally fixes this [1], but apparently a new release has yet to be uploaded to hackage. In any case, if you try to install it from the repo, this may at least solve some of your problems.
