Re: BUG #15759: Lot of idle connection created by "SET extra_float_digits = 3" - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

Hi Tomas,

Thanks for your response. Kindly see the below screen shot where we have lot of idle connection which is reaching max pool size soon, but the actual request is only one.

SET extra_float_digits = 3 (or any other SET command) does not create any
connections at all. It's much more likely your application opens a new
connection, executes the SET command on it (so it's in pg_stat_activity)
and then goes to do something else.

If that's not the case, we need much more information. Why do you think
the SET command is creating idle connections?
