# Generic connection pool class for e.g. sharing a limited number of network connections
# among many threads.  Note: Connections are eager created.
#
# Example usage with block (faster):
#
#    @pool = ConnectionPool.new { Redis.new }
#
#    @pool.with do |redis|
#      redis.lpop('my-list') if redis.llen('my-list') > 0
#    end
#
# Example usage replacing a global connection (slower):
#
#    REDIS = ConnectionPool.new { Redis.new }
#
#    def do_work
#      REDIS.lpop('my-list') if REDIS.llen('my-list') > 0
#    end
#
# Accepts the following options:
# - :size - number of connections to pool, defaults to 5
# - :timeout - amount of time to wait for a connection if none currently available, defaults to 5 seconds
#

  DEFAULTS = { :size => 5, :timeout => 5 }
