I have a feeling that what the questioner really means is "how can I
limit the resources consumed by any one database user?" In which case
the problem is a lot bigger than limiting the number of times you can do
CREATE DATABASE. What about creating a lot of tables in a single
database? Or attaching a lot of indexes to a table? Or inserting a
huge number of rows in one table? Or running queries that take forever
and chew up all the CPU cycles?
Postgres doesn't really attempt to deal with any of these problems.
