Maybe some monitoring software that doesn't speak
the Postgres protocol? The connects seem to occur
quite regularly every 11 seconds...

You might want to configure the log output format to include
the IP address/host name of the creator of these messages
(log_line_prefix in postgresql.conf, "%h"). Or use a packet
sniffer like wireshark.

Ciao,
Thomas
