that is about 2300 processes being task scheduled by your kernel, each
of them using > 1 MB of RAM and some other ressources, are you sure
that this is what you want?
Usual recommended design for a web application:
start request, rent a connection from connection pool, do query, put
connection back, finish request, wait for next request
so to get 500 connections in parallel, you would have the outside
situaion of 500 browsers submitting requests within the time needed to
fullfill one request.
