Is there a way inside of Postgresql to automatically terminate idle
connections? I would like to terminate any connection to my database
that has not has any activity for a specified period of time. I would
like to be able to do this despite the state of the connection (the
majority of my truly idle connections show "idle in transaction" in the
process table). I would love for the db engine to do this, but if it
can't, is there an easy way to do this outside the database with some
sort of script?
If this is not possible, would there be a possibility of it being added to a future version?
thanks,
Chris
