There is no "pool" reference in server.xml or any of the context.xml

You would want to look for <Resource>.

However, I did receive a call from a vendor tech this morning and
they are exploring the question right now and will get back to me
soon hopefully.
Sounds hopeful. I'd be interested to hear what the original justification was for not using pooling.

That depends upon how they are obtaining database connections. If they are
using the driver directly and NOT using a pool (why would they use a pool if
they have a policy NOT to use it?) then there is likely nothing you can do.

Are you able to look at the code? Are you able to look at the configuration?
Specifically, the META-INF/context.xml file in the application and
conf/server.xml for the server.

If we can find a "pool" configuration in there, it's possible it just has insane
limits like maxActive="1000000000" or something like that.

Chris,

Not pooling connections will very likely negatively affect performance.

When you say "they ... have an issue with connection pooling" do you
mean that they have a technical problem, or do you mean that there
is some ill- conceived policy against them?

Oh, maybe they are paranoid about cross-client leakage between
connections. Well, if the application can't be trusted not to leak
that kind of info, then it can't be trusted to make the connections
properly in the first place.

Hard to say what their issue is. We've asked about implementing it
before, but they don't support it. You know how software companies
are. Maybe they had a technical problem with it years ago and have just
not revisited it.
They're stuck in a rut and there is too much inertia to get them out of it.
