Indeed. I think the bottleneck we're interested in addressing here is why you
say you weren't able to saturate the 64 threads with 64 processes when they're
all RAM-resident.
From what I see you still have 400+ processes? Is that right?
Any one claiming they run CPU intensive are not always telling the truth.. They *Think* they are running CPU intensive for the right part but there could be memory misses, they could be doing statistics where they are not really stressing the intended stuff to test, they could be parsing through the results where they are not stressing the backend while still claiming to be cpu intensive (though from a different perspective)
So yes a single process specially a client cannot claim to keep the backend 100% active but so can neither a connection pooler since it still has to some other stuff within the process.
