Pursuant to Stehen's suggestion, I've attached a scripts that you can
execeute from a cron. I wrote it when I was working for a previous company

and transaction that did nothing for a long time.
Just adjust the max_time for your liking. You can also add OR current_query
= '<IDLE>' to kill stagnant connections.
