Write to outputstream in PGStream blocks indefinitely - Mailing list pgsql-jdbc

I am having a problem where by my application freezes after a period
of time under load.  Doing a thread dump shows a large number of
threads seem to be attempting to write to output streams as shown
below.  The application code is attempting to add a single row to a
table, including binary data of between 3kb - 10kb. This requires a
restart of the application to clear.

Has anyone else seen similar behaviour?  Could this be related to the
issue discussed in
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-jdbc/2004-12/msg00096.php where
the server and driver are filling their respective buffers.  If so
what is the best approach to reducing the likelyhodd of this
happening.

This occurs using PostgreSQL 8.0.3 with JDBC driver version 8.0-311.


Regards

Jonas
