clear defunct entries from pg_stat_activit y

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql...1/msg00581.php

In the above Jan Wieck mentions a bug that occurs in pg 7.3.4 that
causes a crashing backend to hang around in the stats until the slot is
reused, due to the message that tells that the backend terminates is
never sent to the collector daemon.

I'm curious if anyone knows if this was fixed in 7.4, and perhaps more
importantly if there is a way to clear these entries in 7.3.4. (I was
thinking perhaps some entries in the stats tables but didn't find
anything...)

Coming off of 7.4.3 I've always used select count(*) from pg_stat_activity through the ODBC driver to obtain the number of connections to the db. I've found that with v8.0 Beta 1 that this at times has returned a value of 0 (when there is obviously still a connection). It's not repeatable, and occurs sporadically. Does anyone have any reason as to why this would be isolated to V8? Is this an acceptable means of obtaining the...

I ran a home-grown self continuous stress test tool against my 7.4.2 database. I banged 'ps' (running freebsd) while it was active and witnessed several of the 'back end' postgres processes exeucting queries, commits, inserts, etc....(the actual work the processes were doing was listed in the 'ps' output) however, if I checked pg_stat_activity during the same time period, I saw nothing populated in the current_query column...ever.

If I call os.environ.clear in a python program child processes still see the deleted entries. But when I iterate over the keys like so names = os.environ.keys for k in names: del os.environ then the entries are also deleted for the child processes. Where is the difference? Is this a bug? (Observed in Python 2.5.2)

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
