Hi Jonathan, Assuming you have 1 request and 5 subrequests, shouldn't there only be 2 > connections needed in the pool (i.e. the main request establishes a first > connection, then subrequest 1 establishes a second connection which is > re-used by 2-5)? You wouldn't be able to save a connection like this if > you had recursive subrequests - but that would be a design flaw in the > application logic. >
>From within the view function (i.e. handling the incoming request) I issue 5 subrequests one after the other. Doing so I noticed that the number of subrequests was bound by the pool_size + max_overflow, hence my question here and in the SQLA group. > If you're connecting to sqlalchemy during your setup, you can screw up the > connection pool unless you call `engine.dispose()` (see a thread from a few > weeks ago), because SqlAlchemy's connections and pool aren't forksafe or > threadsafe. > I'm not sure what you mean here: "during setup" meaning when the app starts, or when the request is being handled?
