Hi @AnnAngela
No, we don’t release the connection on every data collection cycle. We create/open the connection during the first data collection and keep using it.
I see we set SetConnMaxLifetime
to 1 minute, so i would expect release/recreate every 1 minute.
When you do show processlist;
pay attention to the Host
field - if it changes it means there is a new connection (e.g.: 172.17.0.1:46860 => 172.17.0.1:46868).
I don’t remember why we set it to 1 minute Can increase it to 5.
