Hmm, isn't Postgres process called backend process? AFAIK postmaster
(it's simply a nickname to Postgres) forks itself on receiveing new
connection request. Isn't it true? I mean that Postmaster is the same 
binary as Postgres itself.

Of course I used -p option. The problem is, when I start Postmaster,
it complains about 'profile timer expired'. What do I do wrong?
