Heroku and Django connection pool

Django does not have any connection pooling. Instead, they recommend working with an external pool, like pgBouncer. This worked great for me in the past, but I am wondering how can get pgbouncer (or something similar) in Heroku (Heroku App <-> Heroku hosted postgres DB). This is crucial since the 150ms connection time per request is not acceptable. Thanks

Try using django-db-pool its a connection pooling DB driver for django that works pretty well. We have many users using this on Heroku who are pretty happy with it.
