This surprises me a little. I thought there were a 1:1 relation
between apache child processes and database connections. Why
a http server process should need more than one database
connection?
However, this could explain the fact that when I reached the 32
postgres client limit, I had only 20 apache processes running. This
led me to think that there was something wrong.
