When the pool is exhausted, new SSH operations return ECONNREFUSED or timeout errors. The issue appears sporadically un
Remote-SSH Connection Management VSCodium's Remote-SSH extension utilizes a connection pool to multiplex multiple logical channels—such as terminals, debug sessions, and file system operations—over a single SSH connection. By default, this pool maintains a maximum limit of concurrent channels. Resource Constraints and Behavior When the maximum channel limit
