+## MongoDB connection string
+
+!!! admonition "Version added: 0.10.0"
+
+PCSM supports the MongoDB `maxPoolSize` connection string option, which controls the maximum number of connections the MongoDB Go driver can maintain in its connection pool.
+
+You can set this option in the source and/or target MongoDB connection strings using `--source` and `--target` command-line options or through the `PCSM_SOURCE_URI` and `PCSM_TARGET_URI` environment variables.
+
+### Syntax
+
+Append `maxPoolSize` as a query parameter to your connection string:
+
+Without existing query parameters:
+
+~~~text
+mongodb://host:port/?maxPoolSize=500
+~~~
+
+With existing query parameters:
+
+~~~text
+mongodb://host:port/?replicaSet=rs0&maxPoolSize=500
+~~~
+
+??? example "Example: maxPoolSize=500"
+
+    ```{.bash data-prompt="$"}
+    $ pcsm --source='mongodb://rs00:30000/?maxPoolSize=500' --target='mongodb://rs10:30100' --log-level='debug'

+### How maxPoolSize works
+
+| **Configuration** | **Behavior** |
+| --------------- | -------- |
+| Not set | Driver defaults to **100** connections |
+| `maxPoolSize=N` | Driver caps the pool at **N** connections |
+| `maxPoolSize=0` | Removes the limit, allowing the driver to create as many connections as needed. |
+

+
+### Recommendations
+
+For the best clone performance, size the connection pool to match or exceed the number of clone workers.
+
+| Cluster | Recommended `maxPoolSize`           |
+| ------- | ----------------------------------- |
+| Source  | At least `--clone-num-read-workers`   |
+| Target  | At least `--clone-num-insert-workers` |
+
+When PCSM starts, it logs the effective `maxPoolSize` for both the source and target clients.
+
+!!! note
+    `maxPoolSize` applies independently to each MongoDB server or `mongos` instance that the client connects to. It does not define a single global connection limit for the entire client.
