Does calling `drizzle()` multiple times on the same db client instance consume more resources?
related to a question from: https://github.com/drizzle-team/drizzle-orm/issues/594
Would using the same
postgres(...)
client instance and creating multiple Drizzle instances from it, e.g. one for each request in a middleware, consume additional database connection resources compared to creating one drizzle instance for the whole server process?
@Angelelz this is related to the question you asked in the github issue. I believe my current implementation doesn't have this problem since it uses proxies, but I was about to refactor to call drizzle()
once per request and want to make sure I'm not about to blow up my database!GitHub

I don't believe it does, because you'd be using the same underlying pool that comes from calling
postgres(...)
@Dan KochetovI'll just test this locally, actually. Surely I can just use
pg_stat_activity
and see if creating 1 vs 10 drizzle instances with the same underlying client causes any changes
@Angelelz answer: no. and the clients don't actually connect to the database at all until a query is runExcelent, your solution is pretty good
yea,
drizzle()
call only wraps an existing connection, so you can create as many Drizzle instances as you need
