I am using digital oceans app engine and am so frustrated since it takes 3 or 4 minutes per try right now to deploy so feedback is slow

I have tried with connection string / individual variables

I just dont know much about pooling, do I need to specify more things for knex?

min/max values

When I try and start a fresh app from the directus/directus container, it doesnt get past this log line:

Alright, so it's not pooling. It's digital ocean and the app platform sucking.

I just booted up a droplet and used the connection pooling data to connect

and it was fine
