Why did i get the best benchmark if i set the max connection to 1 ?

I have tested some popular database drivers (postgres, pg, mariadb, mysql2) using TechEmpower benchmark tools, i use 3 VMs (server, database, and client, each has 8 vcpus / 8 GB memory)

Tested using the default options of each database driver, this is the result:

Changed the max connections for postgres to max: 1, and this is the result:
