I love Postgres, but its roots in the 1980s really shows through in the fork-per-connection process model. Running pgBouncer and/or HAProxy as a frontend (both of which use a much more modern event-driven architecture) seems like a band-aid. A very effective band-aid, of course, but still papering over a nearly 40-year-old design decision.
