As there's no robots.txt file, ( http://www.postgresql.org/robots.txt =>
404) it could just be a spider/crawler (e.g. google) hitting the site with
many connections at once.

If that is an issue, I would suggest letting google et all, spider the
static docs, and disallowing them from the dynamic idocs. However this
would mean useful suggestions in the idocs won't turn up in google etc.
