Max Pool Size determines how many connections will be kept open (once
opened) in the pool. Generally, a normally loaded system should use about a
dozen connections. If a connection string is different than any existing
pooled string, a new pool is created. Each pool contains connections with
identical connection strings. If you change the connection string each time,
you'll get a new pool each time.
