 Examines pgbouncer's pool statistics. Each pool has a set of "client"
 connections, referring to connections from external clients, and "server"
 connections, referring to connections to PostgreSQL itself. The related
 check_postgres actions are prefixed by "cl_" and "sv_", respectively. Active
-client connections are those connections currently associated with an active
-server connection. Client connections may also be "waiting", meaning they have
-not yet been allocated a server connection.
+client connections are those connections currently linked with an active server
+connection. Client connections may also be "waiting", meaning they have not yet
+been allocated a server connection. Server connections are "active" (linked to
+a client), "idle" (standing by for a client connection to link with), "used"
+(just unlinked from a client, and not yet returned to the idle pool), and
+"login" (in the process of logging in). The maxwait value shows how long in
+seconds the oldest waiting client connection has been waiting.
