ok ,
now the question is , is it possible to dig out from from postgresql
database
server if connection pooling is needed ? In our case eg i have kept
max_connections = 300 if i reduce below 250 i get error "max connection
reached....."
on connecting to db directly, if i put pgbouncer i get less performance
(even if no clients waiting)

without pooling the dbserver CPU usage increases but performance of apps
is also become good.
