Any additional insights or information on how latencies relate to number of connections?

• jonahberquist 4y ago
  This is more dependent on parallelism of queries rather than parallelism of connections. Having a ton of relatively idle connections won't increase the query latency. For the related topic, in https://planetscale.com/blog/one-million-queries-per-second-with-mysql https://planetscale.com/blog/one-million-queries-per-second-... we touched on saturating shards through increased parallelism resulting in latency, and then also being an indication of needing to scale more horizontally.
