Thanks for sharing this. From that perspective, neither the current
min/max nor the timeout configuration approach would be satisfying, as
it's not really possible to configure it to always have a certain amount
of bgworkers (exactly adjusted to the requirements at hand, with
possibly differing requirements per database).

I'm unsure about how to continue here. It seems we need the ability to
switch between databases not (only) for performance, but for ease of
configuration.
