What are some examples of connection pooling in GORM?

GORM provides several ways to manage connection pooling. For instance, you can configure the connection pool size in your database settings.

Can you show me a code example for setting up connection pooling?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import (
    "gorm.io/gorm"
    "gorm.io/driver/mysql"
)

func main() {
    dsn := "user:password@tcp(127.0.0.1:3306)/dbname?charset=utf8mb4&parseTime=True&loc=Local"
    db, err := gorm.Open(mysql.Open(dsn), &gorm.Config{})
    sqlDB, err := db.DB()
    sqlDB.SetMaxOpenConns(100) // Set max open connections
    sqlDB.SetMaxIdleConns(10)  // Set max idle connections
}

What are the benefits of using connection pooling?

Connection pooling improves performance by reusing existing connections, reducing the overhead of establishing new connections.

Are there any best practices for managing connection pools?

Yes, some best practices include setting appropriate limits for open and idle connections, monitoring pool usage, and handling connection timeouts.
