    Thanks for the info. At the current rate of drainage, I shouldn't have to hold my breath at all in a few days.

    You might not want to let that happen by itself -- I'd call a pool builder or service guy. If it's leaking like you say, you're going to have to drain it and repair it anyhow -- and draining liner pools is pretty much a professionals-only task (yes, some amateurs succeed, but more end up destroying their liner!).

    And . . . that amount of water leaking through can substantially increase the difficulty of repairs to the subsurface.
