Over the past few days, I had some problems with too few connections availabe for postgresql. I resolved them for the short term, but when I tried setting the max_connections for postgresql as high as 64, I received a message indicating that I had to increase the semaphores available in the kernel before I could do that, which seems to require a recompile of the kernel. I haven't compiled the kernel before, so this is new to me. Before I go ahead and do that, after reading through the handbook, etc., I wanted to ask if there were any gotcha's I should be aware of. IOW, would increasing the number of semaphores available have any cascading effect in general, all other things being equal? I'm running FBSD 4.9. Thx
