A can confirm.
A lot of unwanted behaviour in case of broken connection (including pgadmin crash).
As far as I remember it has been reported multiple times, and answered that it is not possible to fix it due to ammount of work needed.

I still cannot understand how is it possible in case of official software packaged with postgresql :(

Apologies: I failed to mention that I am using Windows 7 x64 as my workstation platform.  The server is running on a unix variant.

 

And, yes, there are firewalls in between, that cut off sessions after x amount of time.

Congrats on the good improvements to pgAdmin.

 

I do still find that when a connection to the distant postgresql server is lost, that pgAdmin behaves badly and sometimes even has to be killed and restarted.

 

What I see happening is akin to someone disconnecting the ethernet cable.

 

Eg: a firewall between my workstation and the server has a timeout, and is dropping the session.

 

It would be nice perhaps if there was a ‘noop’ kind of request that could be sent every so often as a keep-alive to ensure the connection does not get considered to be idle.

 

Regards,

Peter
