Michael Armbrust commented on SPARK-8008:
-----------------------------------------
I think connection pooling is used primarily to avoid the overhead of making a
new connection for each operation. In the case of extracting large amounts of
data, the user may actually want multiple concurrent connections from the same
machine.
> sqlContext.jdbc can kill your database due to high concurrency

> Key: SPARK-8008
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8008
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Rene Treffer
>
> Spark tries to load as many partitions as possible in parallel, which can in
> turn overload the database although it would be possible to load all
> partitions given a lower concurrency.
> It would be nice to either limit the maximum concurrency or to at least warn
> about this behavior.
