The process should die once the TCP timeout has expired. This is IIRC 2 hours by default, it could be 4. You can chance
this,but only on a per-server basis. 

This happens when the connectino just goes away and there is no packet telling the server it's closing. There is no way
forpostgres to know the client went away.
