Re: Linux server connection process consumes all memory

Hi thank you for the answer, I am referring to the postgres process
on the Linux server corresponding to the connection I have established.
After doing a TOP you may see quite a few postgres processes. One of them
belongs to the connection established by the client application. It is this
process that grows consuming memory.

Kind regards
Yiannis

It's not clear from this what process is continuing to grow. Is it the
PostgreSQL server process? Or your client process?
