Mongoid connection pool on heroku

Question

I have an application deployed on heroku. Sometimes background process raises the following error: "The task failed because of an error: could not obtain connection within 5.0 seconds. The max pool size is currently 1; consider increasing the pool size or timeout."

How can I increase pool size or the timeout? Unfortunately I can't find anything useful in Mongoid documentation and sources.

You can specify the pool size in mongoid.yml:

production:
    pool_size: 5

Details here.
