 * pool_size - the maximum amount of preallocated byte chunks used in queries (default is 100). Decrease this if you experience memory problems at the expense of more GC pressure and vice versa.
 * debug - enable debug output (boolean value)
 * compress - enable lz4 compression (integer value, default is '0')
+* check_connection_liveness - on supported platforms non-secure connections retrieved from the connection pool are checked in beginTx() for liveness before using them. If the check fails, the respective connection is marked as bad and the query retried with another connection. (boolean value, default is 'true')
