Maybe database connections aren't closing properly? Don't know where
to start looking though.

A few weeks ago, I saw something similar (more Django and postgresql
processes than usual, not doing anything special), but it hasn't
happened since. Thinking about it, it happened when I was
reindexing/updating my Whoosh database.

Maybe check open pipes or sockets for the Django processes? Or any
other open resources for those processes? I didn't really bother to
investigate when it happened for me as it hasn't happened since, but
seeing as it is reproducible for you, those are the things I'd take a
look at first.
