well you can hopefully reduce connections from jdbc pooling then. The
fact that the connections are idle is good.
The problem you run into is what happens when things go into
"overload" I.e. when the db server starts to slow down, more of those
idle connections become not idle. If all 300 are then waiting on the
db server, it will slow to a crawl and eventually fall over.
