It occurs to me that we may need a new mode, which disconnects sessions that are not in a transaction (or as soon as they are) but leaves in-progress transactions alone; this could be the new default. Of course, this is much more difficult to implement than the current modes. -- Álvaro Herrera <alvhe...@commandprompt.com> The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc.
