I've got a system that has 32 cores and 128 gigs of ram. We have connection pooling set up, with about 100 - 200 persistent connections open to the database. Our applications then use these connections to query the database constantly, but when a connection isn't currently executing a query, it's <IDLE>. On average, at any given time, there are 3 - 6 connections that are actually executing a query, while the rest are <IDLE>.


thats not a very effective use of pooling.   the pooling model, you'd
have a connection pool sufficient actual database connections to
satisfy your concurrency requirements, and your apps would grab a
connection from the pool, do a transaction, then release the
connection back to the pool.

now, I don't know that this has anything to do with your performance
problem, I'm just pointing out this anomaly.  a pool doesn't do much
good if the clients grab a connection and just sit on it.

It is good model, he have 3-6 connection at one time, so it's look quite clear that icrease of concurrent connections is caused by unexpected background processing.
