There's also the issue of open filehandles, etc. My development
environment is limited to 10240 filehandles per process (though of
course that can be changed). Opening 10,000 connections would use most
of those, leaving very few left to accept incoming requests from
clients, etc.

It would be easier if all databases were hosted by a single instance
of MySQL -- then you could use Tomcat-pool's feature of being able to
provide credentials when obtaining connections from the pool -- and
get the right database. That way, a much smaller number of connections
could be maintained with roughly the same semantics.
