I tried with 70-90 connections, because we have a system running on
2 pc's, but pgpool looks stuck.
I will be too graceful if you can help me to know the right setup in
pgpool.conf to avoid that.
Next, i show you my actual settings :
num_init_children = 60
max_pool = 4
child_life_time = 60
connection_life_time = 60
child_max_connections = 100
client_idle_limit = 0
if you need more detail, the file pgpool.conf, postgres.conf and the
script to execute postgres are attached.
By the way, the operative system is SCO Open Server 5.0.7

# (The "=" is optional.) Whitespace may be used. Comments are introduced with
# "#" anywhere on a line. The complete list of parameter names and allowed

# The commented-out settings shown in this file represent the default values.
# Re-commenting a setting is NOT sufficient to revert it to the default value;
# you need to reload the server.

# This file is read on server startup and when the server receives a SIGHUP
# signal. If you edit the file on a running system, you have to SIGHUP the
# server for the changes to take effect, or use "pg_ctl reload". Some
# parameters, which are marked below, require a server shutdown and restart to
# take effect.

# "postgres -c log_connections=on". Some paramters can be changed at run time
# with the "SET" SQL command.
