Hi,All I found this subject in the archives, and I am having the same problem. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
What is currently the best practice of connecting to MonetDB5/SQL? Is there much overhead in the connection phase (thus: cache the connection) or can a developer just reconnect each time the database connection is required without much overhead?
The target platform is extremely demanding in requests and memory, so I would like to design it good from the start.
Then go for connection pooling. Logging in requires a handshake, which is expensive on large scale. Beware that using >1 connection at the same time to an SQL server is a challenge that is only minimally tested. My practical experiences with that boils down to signal 11.
Would you let me know more detail? Your meaning of "Beware that using >1 connection at the same time..." is which case? Case 1. : 2 or more process try to connect at the same. Case 2. : 1 process is connecting, and other process try to connect. I appreciate your kindly support. gashi
