As part of the training class I did, some people tested what happens
when the client allocates tons of memory to store a result and aborts.
What we found was that though elog was properly called:
elog(COMMERROR, "pq_recvbuf: recv() failed: %m");
(I think that was the message.) the backend did not exit and kept
eating CPU. I think the problem is that the elog code only exits on
ERROR, not COMMERROR. Is there some way to fix this?
