Hi,
I would like to know the limit of concurrent users in a free version of PostgreSQL for Windows. I have a requirement for 500 users working at the same time on a PostgreSQL DB.

Thanks
Kintu
 
Hi kintu,

Since there is currently no native win32 port of postgres, cygwin unix emulation usually must be installed to accommodate postgres under windows. The bad news is that cygwin may limit postgres to a max of 32 or so users/processes. This is a limitation of cygwin, not postgres. You may be able to find a native source code version of postgres and compile it using Windows C++, or if you could wait, a win32 native binary of postgres is schdule for release in conjuction with the release of postgres 7.4 due out in about six months.
