Hi,
I wander why i see several postgres server processes with different PIDs
I don't mean those normal query processes. I see several of these:
/usr/lib/postgresql/8.4/bin/postgres -D /database/postgresql/8.4/main -c config_file=/etc/postgresql/8.4/main/postgresql.conf                                                 
With different pids. Is this normal ?
