Feature Description

Introduce a configurable max idle count parameter in the connection pool to control the maximum number of idle resources retained. This ensures efficient resource utilization, reduced memory and connection overhead, and improved performance during varying workloads.

Use Case(s)

With the fluctuating workloads, idle timeout may release resources prematurely, causing delays during spikes due to costly reacquisition. Max idle count ensures a fixed number of idle connections are retained, enabling faster response during bursts while minimizing overhead in low-traffic periods. Balances performance, resource efficiency, and cost.
