What is maxusers set to in your kernel? One prolem I had was that
postgresql was using more filedescriptors that my kernel could handle. If
you'd like to check your current filedescriptor status and your max, try:
pstat -T. If that is your problem, change your maxusers to a suitable
number and recompile your kernel.
