That really depends on what you're doing with it. If each connection
is doing a simple transaction on a small indexed set, then you can
probably have hundreds of connections open on an even modest machine.
OTOH, if you're running reports across hundreds of megs with a large
work_mem setting then you might be best with only a few dozen or so
connections.
So, what are ya doing and how many users are you supporting at once?
