Re: postgres connections in IDLE state..

Thanks.

But what is the process id that is attached to the connection? Can I track down or debug/ get more information related to that process id?

The whole point of a connection pool is to keep open connections to the database. These connections, when not in use, are "IDLE". I would expect to see a single connection for every permanent pool connection.

I don't see any problem with what you show and describe other than I'd expect more than 2 idle connections and I'd expect the supposed "problem" to be persistent.

In your example the backend has been alive and in the pool since 9/11 and the most recent time it was used was 10/2. In between those two dates there were many other times the connection was used.
