Description
AbstractConnPool is currently using a ReentrantLock which has to lock for read and write operations. Switching to ReentrantReadWriteLock[1] and read locks for the stats/getters methods would reduce the possibility for instrumentation[1] to cause contention. Another option would be StampedLock[3] if the compile target is 1.8.
