So my approach of sending only the CancelRequest should work ?

Always from a new connection, before sending the StartUpSequence, just
open, connect and send it ?


Quoted from the documentation:

"The cancellation signal might or might not have any effect — for
example, if it arrives after the
backend has finished processing the query, then it will have no
effect. If the cancellation is effective,
it results in the current command being terminated early with an error
message. "

Here I understand that maybe it will have NO effect, so postgresql
will still sending rows and rows and rows ...


thanks,
