Connection timeout with Ecto / Postgrex and Neon
Hi, I am getting a connection timout with Ecto when connecting to Neon. Neon suspends their Postgresql instances and the timeout happens when the instance is being unsuspended. According to Neon logs, the instance wakes up in around 200ms, but Ecto gives me a timeout after 15s.
Here are my Ecto settings:
config :myapp, Myapp.Repo,
url: database_url,
pool_size: String.to_integer(System.get_env("POOL_SIZE") || "10"),
socket_options: maybe_ipv6,
queue_target: System.get_env("DATABASE_QUEUE_TARGET") || 5_000,
queue_interval: System.get_env("DATABASE_QUEUE_INTERVAL") || 10_000,
ssl: [
verify: :verify_none
]
And here is the error:

Outside of the unsuspention period, connections work fine.
I am not sure what DBConnection params I should be looking to tweak.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
