Hi all , I have a question or a doubt, when I ran psql remotely it
opens a process on the server, so I issue a query (select count(*) from
80millionsrowstable) then I can see that process taking cpu and mem
from the server (using top), then I cancel the psql on the client, I
expect to see that process gone but that is not the case it is still
there! and taking resources!.
When I cancelled the query issued by the client is not supposed to eliminate the process open for him on the server?
The process stays hanging there?
why is that?.
Is there any parameter on postgresql or the operating system that can tune?
I am using mandriva linux free 2006
kernel 2.6.12
Postgresql 8.0.8
phpPgAdmin 4.0.1 (running in a web server whit php module 5.0.4)
Same thing using phpPgAdmin
Thanks in advance! I really aprecciate your help!
