What factory are you using? It's important to share. Without it we don't know
which pool you're using.

You should enable this so you're alerted if your application is not properly
returning connections.

Is this SQL valid? If for some reason this SQL was failing, it would cause
your connection count to go to zero. Same with the validation query, although
that looks OK.

How long does it take for the size to go to zero? When it does, what do the
active and idle counts show? Are they zero too?
Also, what happens when you try to get a connection after the pool count has
dropped to 0? Does it get a new connection? Does it hang waiting? Does it
generate any error messages?
Is there any reason why you might be getting disconnected from the database
side or from a firewall in between your application and the database?
