TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster

The common view on this kind of thing is that if

you need to fix it.
The problem is, we can't fix the users, nor can we fix
other software that our client has to interact with.
There will always be occasional situations when a
client gets stuck.
That said, I have seen some folks post about writing
a perl or shell
script that runs every x minutes looking for
connections that have been
idle for > a certain amount of time and kill the
backend associated with
it (sigterm, not -9...)
what are the implications of killing a postmaster
process?
thanks,
Eugene
