Connection Pooling Series or parallel ?
If we have a connection like this :
Conn1 : "Server=SQL01;Database=AdventureWorks;Integrated
Security=SSPI;Pooling=true;Min Pool Size=100"
Are the 100 connections created in series(one after the other) or
parallel(all nearly at the same time) ?
To avoid Flooding the Database with Connections they are created in series .
You can check that by executing the above connection and notice the
"starttime" column in Profiler , you will notice in the profiler that they
are opened serially after each other by fractions of seconds.
