Last discussion that happened for multithreading was not to add threads per
connection like mysql, but to split tasks between threads so that IO blocking
and efficiently using SMP abilities would be taken care off IIRC..
One thread per connection isn't going to change much, at least for mainstream
postgresql. For embedded, it might be a necessity..
