Hi, I also have this issue (I'm using 8.2.4), but whenever this happens I see only a few (4-6) postgresql processes in the system, and my connection limit is set to 128. Kinda strange. Next time when I notice it I will check pg_stat_activity and report back. On Fri, Nov 30, 2007 at 03:03:31PM -0500, Jonah H.
