As it stands, I have postgres set to a max limit of 512 users. I have been told and read some material to where anything above 512 users may require re compiling postgres. I have installed postgres via a RPM and therefore have never had to compile postgres before. My main concern is what would I need to change other than the user limit to make postgres to where it would accept connections higher than 512 and what steps are involved in the compiling process. Right now, if I try to set the user limit above 512, postgres simply will not start. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
