Decrease the max_connections, use connection pooling if possible (e.g. pgbouncer). Each connection represents a separate postgres process, so you may get up to 512 processes. And that many active processes kills the performance.
... and this is why it'd be great to see pooling-by-default in Pg, be it integrated PgPool or something else. For every person making the effort to ask on the mailing list, how many give up and go away?
Yes, I know it's not exactly easy to integrate pooling, and that there are real disagreements about pooling vs admission control.
