Tomcat Connection Pool?

I am running a connection pool for the PostgreSQL and I was wondering
which values you would reccommend for the connection pool?

<parameter>
<name>maxWait</name>
<value>5000</value>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<name>maxActive</name>
<value>10</value>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<name>maxIdle</name>
<value>2</value>
</parameter>

What does maxWait and maxIdle means?

Regards,

BTJ
