What is the recommended way to do that? It seems postgres uses shared memory, and we have 15 connections all taking up around 35MB as per task manager OR top. We are not able to figure out definitatively if there is a memory leak. Help/Clues??? Thanks all for your responses so far.
This also suggests that you have not tuned pg. 35M shared memory is not very much. You should look at tuning the installation.

Probably a Linux distro packaging thing, or a Windows installer revision. On my Ubuntu 9.04 box for example, `dpkg -l postgresql-8.3' reports Pg's version as 8.3.7-1 . The -1 is the Debian package revision, but people may not know that.
