DB-backed storage service: testing database pool status?

[Wessel, Keith]

Just to confirm, Scott, you're suggesting I explicitly state:

factory=" org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory"

rather than relying on Tomcat's hard-coded default behavior?

I agree; no sense in relying on what someone else thinks I should be using and forces me into. Just making sure I understand your suggestion.

I wouldn't really count on that. Just use a recent dbcp and configure it
yourself. Tomcat never did pooling before, and I wouldn't trust them to
keep doing it. I don't even think they *should*; it makes no sense to
override the deployer's explicit choice of DataSource because they think
they know better. In fact, they don't, because a default pool is not
useful.
