Measure database connection count

Added in 4.6.0

The server can be configured to report in the logs the amount of active and total connections that your database is currently handling.

The report will look like this

Database connection count report => DB object id: 69da4799-ea7d-49a4-8628-949f4d1e876a
Database connection count report => Connections in use: 1
Database connection count report => Total connections: 10

This report will run at a set interval (every second by default).

To enable, simply add the dbConnectionReporter to your desired config:

{
// ...other config options
dbConnectionReporter: true,
}

If you want to adjust the interval, pass an object to the key instead:

{
// ...other config options
dbConnectionReporter: {
interval: 4000, // report will now run every 4 seconds
},
}

Interval values are in milliseconds.
