Connection pooling on Linux or macOS is not recommended with unixODBC < 2.3.7
When pooling is enabled in Linux or macOS

unixODBC <= 2.3.4 (Linux and macOS) might not return proper diagnostic information, such as error messages, warnings and informative messages
due to this unixODBC bug, fetch large data (such as xml, binary) as streams as a workaround. See the examples here
