Yeah, it did become something of an investigation into the problem which
probably should have been moved to -hackers.
I summarised the info in the FAQ
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs.FAQ_windows.html#4.4 for user
consumption, and included a link to the MS Knowledgebase article that
shows what to tweak in the registry.

Yes, that was all about how we were using threads to manage interprocess
communications. We found a far more efficient way to do that, but my
guess is that thats not your problem.

That could be an issue with Hibernate or the other code you're running,
but yes, if it's opening lots of connections and keeping them open that
could be what's wrong and I would suggest checking the FAQ above.
