Subject: [PERFORM] Big number of connections

Hello!

        We are going to build system based on PostgreSQL database for huge 
number of individual users (few thousands). Each user will have his own 
account, for authorization we will use Kerberos (MIT or Windows). 
Most of users will have low activity, but for various reasons, connection 
should be open all the time.
I'd like to know what potential problems and limitations we can expect with 
such deployment.
        During preliminary testing we have found that for each connection we 
need ~1MB RAM. Is there any way to decrease this ? Is there any risk, that such 
number of users will degrade performance ?
        I'll be happy to hear any remarks and suggestions related to design, 
administration and handling of such installation.

best regards
Jarek
