BTW, just for the heck of it, I decided to try it out on my dev system (several year old 17" MacBook Pro, meaning core i7 processor), PostgreSQL 9.2, pgbouncer 1.5. So, connecting via libpq to postgres directly takes 2-3 ms, connecting to pgbouncer takes typically 70-150 us, with the occasional outlier at 500+ us--of course that's with a pgbouncer config with a big enough pool that I never have to wait for a connection to become free.
