Thank you again, I have another question in order to make sure I have a clear understanding:

My impression was that since each client (e.g. libpq) connection results in the creation of a Postgres process in the
backend(https://www.postgresql.org/developer/backend/) then this (mysql) "connection pool" hash table is not global
perse and shared among the different client / users sessions. But that defeats the purpose, no?
