	// maintains a pool of idle connections for efficient re-use.

	// connections and only calls Close when there's a surplus of
	// idle connections, it shouldn't be necessary for drivers to

	// its number of placeholders. In that case, the sql package
	// will not sanity check Exec or Query argument counts.
