Performance gain in using object pooling in COM+ -- dotnet component services

Hi, I have a system using a 3-tier physical architecture (IIS/COM+/DB).
A object in COM+ gets called abount 450,000 times day.

I was wondering if I could have some noticable performance gain in
activating "Object pooling". My method executes very fast and I don't
have any special initialization work to do.

It just opens a DB connection from a pool, do its work and the returns
the connection to the pool.

Thank you

As in all enterprise scenarios, the answer is: try it, measure it and then
take a decision.
Object pooling is especially designed for objects that have a high cost
creation; but like I said, you need to test your specific scenario to see if
you get a better performonce.
