I am new to PostgreSQL and just beginning to learn the product. I will
probrobably be using it exclusively on Windows.

I was surprised to learn that PostgreSQL creates a new process for each
connection. Doesn't this severely limit its scalability by consuming
resources rapidly on the server as the number of user increases?
