Will someone please point me to a URL re PG's Java backend cost.. been googling but no joy so far.. I'd like find out how often the JVM starts up eg based on queries or sessions or connections or what... didn't know it was potentially woeful. In particular re "Because Pg doesn't re-use backends, there's a huge amount of JVM startup and shutdown cost."
