In both cases 1. But I believe pgpool can support more databases. Size of db should not matter but we have 50GB if database being used with pgpool.

I guess in addition to using pgpool you should also think about using pgbouncer as connection pooling agent (I would probably install it on application server and configure to connect to pgpool)

If there is a way you can specify different connection strings for these two type of queries then you can make most out of pgbouncer. Do you do any explicit transactions in these procedures?

Yes you can specify those on white list (provided they are readonly procedures).
