I have been monitoring netstat -c on my db server for a few days now. I am trying to determine if when I see a postgres connection, if that is indeed just 1 connection or if it is a bunch of connections tied up in 1. The other day I had postgres set to a limit of 128 connections, and that was reached. But at no time while monitoring netstat -c did I see 128 connections! At this point, im assuming that netstat-c does not provide an accurate count of current connections. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
