I wouln't do that. These seems to be php persistent connections, and
they are idle for the moment but reused for new wiki requests.

If there is no configuration switch, search for pg_pconnect in the code
and replace it with pg_connect, but if You're running a site with heavy
traffic i recommend to use the persistent connections for performance
reasons.
