Using several Channels per target

[Trustin Lee (이희승)]

Hi Shay,

The throughput of the pooled connections will increase linearly up to
the level where the number of connections are equal to the number of
CPU cores probably, because the current transport implementation pins
a connection to a thread.  However, once the total number of
connections increases, there's no improvement in total throughput
because all cores should be handling more channels than the number of
cores.
