Re: Server status hanging on OS X

I can reproduce the issue in v1.14.0 and v1.14.1 as well. This does not happen on all of my Postgres instances, the one I am trying to actively monitor that exhibits the problem is through the ssh port forward.

Running ssh -v -L  5433:<server>:5432 <user>@<server> seems to show a constant traffic stream, with messages like this repeating:

debug2: channel 5: window 1997018 sent adjust 100134
debug2: channel 5: window 1997018 sent adjust 100134
debug2: channel 5: window 1997018 sent adjust 100134
debug2: channel 5: window 1997018 sent adjust 100134
debug2: channel 5: window 1997018 sent adjust 100134
debug2: channel 5: window 1997018 sent adjust 100134
