> We have a setup where in there are around 100 process running in parallel every 5 minutes and each one of them opens a connection to database. We are observing that for each connection , postgre also created on sub processes. We have set max_connection to 100. So the number of sub process in the system is close to 200 every 5 minutes. And because of this we are seeing very high CPU usage.

This does not follow logically, in my experience.  We have many servers that
have over 300 simultaneous connections, and the connections themselves do
not automatically create high CPU usage.

Unless of course, there is an issue with the particular OS you're using,
which you didn't mention.

Use pgpool or pgbouncer.

Set the max connection and handle the connection retry in your application.

pgpool and pgbouncer handle some of that, but I don't know if they do
exactly everything that you want.  Probably a good place to start, though.
