testConnectionOnCheckout Must be set in c3p0.properties, C3P0 default: false
Don’t use it, this feature is very expensive. If set to true, an operation will be performed at every connection checkout to verify that the connection is valid. A better choice is to verify connections periodically using c3p0.idleConnectionTestPeriod.
