RE: FW: URGENT: pgsql on the web server - memory problems....

Thank for responce.

the php is installed as CGI-BIN executable. I think "keep the connections
open" option is not applicable here. I do this because every user works
under its own uid and gid, instead all under "nobody".

i dont have any idea what lsof is...

I will try with netstat, but I was used "ps -axef" and "top".

p.p.
can you told me also how I can use ulimit to limit all postmaster children's
memory ? I mean can i "say" lets all pg uses 40 MB RAM (postmaster and
children)

The postgres backend processes should die when the connections are
closed. Are you sure that the process that runs PHP doesn't keep the
connections open ? You should check open ports using netstat -a and maybe
go on using lsof to check the client processes.
