- update to 2.6:
- The ``max_pool_size`` option for :class:`~pymongo.mongo_client.MongoClient`
and :class:`~pymongo.mongo_replica_set_client.MongoReplicaSetClient` now
actually caps the number of sockets the pool will open concurrently.
Once the pool has reached :attr:`~pymongo.mongo_client.MongoClient.max_pool_size`
operations will block waiting for a socket to become available. If
``waitQueueTimeoutMS`` is set, an operation that blocks waiting for a socket
will raise :exc:`~pymongo.errors.ConnectionFailure` after the timeout. By
default ``waitQueueTimeoutMS`` is not set.
See :ref:`connection-pooling` for more information.
- The :meth:`~pymongo.collection.Collection.insert` method automatically splits
large batches of documents into multiple insert messages based on
:attr:`~pymongo.mongo_client.MongoClient.max_message_size`
- Support for the exhaust cursor flag.
See :meth:`~pymongo.collection.Collection.find` for details and caveats.
- Support for the PLAIN and MONGODB-X509 authentication mechanisms.
See :doc:`the authentication docs ` for more
information.
- Support aggregation output as a :class:`~pymongo.cursor.Cursor`. See
:meth:`~pymongo.collection.Collection.aggregate` for details. (forwarded request 197134 from dirkmueller)
