Обсуждение: memory with lots of connections

Hi,

We are considering migrating over to Postgres on a Sparc Ultra 10 with 512M
RAM running Solaris 2.6.  The thing that is hanging us right now is that
from what we understand a new process is started for every connection made
to PG.  The thing is these processes eat up about 3.5M of memory each.  We
need a possible 200 of these connections to the database.  Is everything I
am seeing and thinking correct?  If so that would mean that it would require
700MB of RAM just to run PG.  That seems like a bit of a strain on a system
for that few database connections.

Any suggestions?
