Connection pool size

To improve server performance, the ASP Server can be configured to share database connections among multiple users who are accessing the Web application. This is called database connection pooling. With connection pooling, rather than opening and closing a database connection for each individual request, the ASP Server uses a connection that is already open.

There is no maximum number of connections that can be pooled. Setting this number to 0 (zero) disables connection pooling. The default is 25.
