I just noticed, but this thread in registered in next CF, so I have
switched this patch as ready for committer. In the documentation,
guc-max-connections (config.sgml) mentions that the default value of
max_connections is typically 100, but it could be less as determined by
initdb. Do we want to specify as well that initdb would use 100 as
upper bound and 20 as lower bound when it does its evaluation? I would
think that this is not worth mentioning in the docs but as initdb is
directly mentioned..
