Dear,

I didn't create a connection pool of one connection. The configuration of the 
datasource in the first case was as follows:
<Context path="/FamilyHandlerOpt">
  <Resource name="jdbc/VAS_FAF" auth="Container" 
type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource" 
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver" 
factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory" 
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@172.21.201.60:1521:FMLYPRD1" username="family2" 
password="family2" maxActive="100" maxIdle="10" maxWait="-1" /> 
  </Context>

In the second case, I opened the connections using the same configuration of 
the datasource above, kept the connections alive and pooled the threads on 
these connections.
The response time of the second case was improved dramatically and the system 
scalability was achieved.

Best regards,
Ahmed Abbas

How did you configure your data source?

How did you configure your data source, here?

Tomcat can be configured to use a data source with a connection pool
size of 1. It's silly, but possible. If this is what you did, then you
simply weren't pooling connections and you should expect that pooling
would certainly improve performance.

If you're interested in playing with connection pools, help out Filip by
using his new Tomcat connection pool he's testing. I'm sure he'd love
the feedback.
