Why would postgres use GDI at all (apart from maybe a hidden console
window and system menu)? Using Task Mangler I can see that each
postgres instance uses 4 GDI objects. So unless you have a hell of a
lot of connections to the database I can't see it using up a lot of GDI
objects. OTOH each postgres instance uses 140 (ish) handles. So after
a while handles may get a little clogged up if you have loads of
connections.
Have you used Task Mangler to look at handles, GDI object etc?
Regards,
Gary.
