ok, say i'm going to use a pool to hold my connections. initially the pool
has only five connections. I assume that there are 50 students in a class.
So they propably login at the same time. They are not all hit the
button at the same second. say, 30 of them hit the button at the same
second, then my pool for login will now holding 30 connections (I think
connection's pool will automaticaly increase its size when it's
nessecary). Am i correct? Also does a connection's pool will automatically
reduce its size after some of the connection returned? Accounding to you,
I need a connection's pool for all my servlets that access db. Say, my
project has 10 servlet that will access db. So, in total, I have 300
connections if the pool doesn't reduce its size automatically. I think 300
connections are really too much. Do you have any solution for me.
One of the solutions(I think) is that: i write a servlet that used to hold
all the connections in my project. when other servlets want to get a
connection, they just get it from my connection's servlet. Is it possible?
How fast do the servlet commumicate with each others?
