I would second this. We actually explicitly limit connections to 50 with
Mammoth PostgreSQL for Win32.
Also win9x just doesn't have the preemptiveness needed in the kernel to
handle something like PostgreSQL.
PostgreSQL on Win32 for WinNT/2000/XP is fairly stable though, as long
as you leave it at 50 connections
or less.
