Great thanks all.
Can you give me any indication of the performance implications of
setting pooling=false?

Hi, all!
As Magnus said, this is caused by the fact Npgsql does connection pool
by default.
You can change that by passing pooling=false in your connection string.

You can get more info at
manual.npgsql.org

I hope it helps
