What I'm trying to determine is: should I plan on using pgbouncer? With Rails & Passenger, do the app server processes take and hold connections to the db? Or take & release with queries/connections? This is not a scalability question; given the traffic the site will have I only need a small handful of connections. It's a latency question, I don't want to be starting up new pg processes excessively. (Yes, I thought about asking on the RoR list, since it's really a question about RoR behaviors, but on the other hand it involves pg optimization & best practice, which is, ahem, different than with MySQL.) -- Scott Ribe scott_ribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.elevated-dev.com/ (303) 722-0567 voice -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
