c3p0 vs dbcp?

Is it possible to use the c3p0 datasource/connection pool with iBatis? Does
anyone know how this package compares to dbcp? Are there any known issues or
problems?

Thank you.  I thought so.  Can anyone comment on c3p0 vs. dbcp?  Is either
one considered to be better/faster than the other? Or better in some usage
models than others?

Absolutely.  You can use any DataSource implementation you like.  All you
need to do is build a DataSourceFactory and pass the fully qualified
classname (or type alias) into the datasource type in the <dataSource>
element of your SqlMapConfig.xml

public interface DataSourceFactory {
  public void initialize(Map map);
  public DataSource getDataSource();
}
