How can one kill just the <IDLE> processes I see attached to a DB (from pg_stat_activity) without disturbing the others? If I need to kill the idle pids one ata time, which signal_name should I use for that?
Connected to psql as a superuser, issue SELECT pg_cancel_backend(PID); where PID is the pid of the process to close.
