Problem
DEFAULT_TPU_CONNECTION_POOL_SIZE was set to 4 to maximize the performance when we do local performance testing with bench-tps. With the server side QOS restrictions per stake node and unstaked node, the benefit of more connections is less obvious while having more connections increase the load on the server especially during leader change.
This only change the default to 1. Validators still can use existing --tpu-connection-pool-size to override the default value.
Summary of Changes
Change DEFAULT_TPU_CONNECTION_POOL_SIZE to 1.
