   MySQL Enterprise Edition includes MySQL Enterprise Thread Pool, implemented using a server plugin. The
      default thread-handling model in MySQL Server executes statements
      using one thread per client connection. As more clients connect to
      the server and execute statements, overall performance degrades.
      In MySQL Enterprise Edition, a thread pool plugin provides an alternative
      thread-handling model designed to reduce overhead and improve
      performance. The plugin implements a thread pool that increases
      server performance by efficiently managing statement execution
      threads for large numbers of client connections.
