Re: FW: max_connections and shared_buffers

Hi Scott, 
We will be putting connection pooling, But as of now we have to find
some cure before implementing pooling.

Memory 		- 2GB
Postgres		- PostgreSQL 8.2.4
OS			- Windows 2003 server installation: ( Service
Pack 2 )

I am not sure how to get the number of connections while this happens.
How this can be taken?

Thanks and Regards,
Anoo S

Sounds like you're being hit by the Out of Memory (oom) killer in your
kernel maybe?  how many connections do you have when this happens?

I think you might need to look at connection pooling.  1024
connections is a LOT of connections.  How much memory does your server
have, btw, and what version of pgsql and what os are you running this
on?
