A couple of hundred connections is already a lot as a point of contention is snapshot build, which is particularly painful for OLTP workloads. If you reach a point where you need hundreds of connections, I would recommend using pgbouncer. This will save your server much CPU by minimizing the effects of connections still around but idle. -- Michael
