Nope, with these numbers it doesn't. I was looking for a reason as to
why it would exhaust the pool - such as a huge number of connections.
Which doesn't appear to be so :-(
Another thing that will affect this is if you have a lot of network
sockets open. Anything like that?
BTW; do you get any eventid 2020 in your eventlog?

Yeah, I think it's at least worth a try at that.
