You should be using a connection pool, if you don't have the memory to support 800 connections then it just isn't going to work.

Hello.
I have a postsgresql database with max 500 connections. All development is in Java (View, Model, controller model). The problem is when I have high traffic (about 10 AM) when the database server collapse. The server turn too slow as It haven´t memory and the swap memory increase too much.

I have already increased the number of connections to 800 in the postgres and sysctl configuration file.
My server is linux Red Hat and Postgres database V8
