 ### Client pooling
 
-Typically you will access the PostgreSQL server through a pool of clients.  node-postgres ships with a built in pool to help get you up and running quickly.
+Generally you will access the PostgreSQL server through a pool of clients.  A client takes a non-trivial amount of time to establish a new connection. A client also consumes a non-trivial amount of resources on the PostgreSQL server - not something you want to do on every http request. Good news: node-postgres ships with built in client pooling.

 ### Simple
 
 Sometimes you may not want to use a pool of connections.  You can easily connect a single client to a postgres instance, run a query, and disconnect.

 ## Native Bindings
 
-node-postgres contains a pure JavaScript driver and also exposes JavaScript bindings to libpq.  You can use either interface.  I personally use the JavaScript bindings as they are quite fast, and I like having everything implemented in JavaScript.
+node-postgres contains a pure JavaScript driver and also exposes JavaScript bindings via libpq.  You can use either interface.  I personally use the JavaScript bindings as they are quite fast, and I like having everything implemented in JavaScript.
 
 To use native libpq bindings replace `require('pg')` with `require('pg').native`.  If you __do not__ need or want the native bindings at all, consider using [node-postgres-pure](https://github.com/brianc/node-postgres-pure) instead which does not include them.
