A few notes from me, if you don't mind. When running a container, I see a
number
or persistent database connections. Initially it's just 1 or 2, but once I've
hit the container with jobs, 6 or more connections to a Pg. These connections
are still around when the container is idle again. If the Pg gets restarted
even
while all connections are idle, I don't think that RFT recovers (does it?). If
the connections were to go away after some idle time, there are usually time
windows where it is "safe" to restart the Pg. I believe RFT needs to deal with
both cases: Suddenly gone database connections (and try to restart before
giving
up), and disconnect after idle.

All frequently used RFT queries are converted into Prepared Statements now.

I may have asked this before: Are you re-connect safe? I mean, if I have an RFT
up and idle, and I restart my rDBMS, will RFT recover from it? After all,
preparted statements are usually associated with a database handle, and would
need to be renewed, if the connection broke away.
