Refreshing causes the number of connections from zope to the postgres to grow (from 4 to 8 in the first time). That's why I suspected there's something wrong either with the DA or with the refresh functionality which has nothing to do with the ZODB.
The refresh functionality *does* have to do with ZODB.
Erm, yes, this sentence shouldn't express that, we need parenthesis also in natural languages, maybe.
Specifically, Refresh attempts to clear the cache, but in Zope 2.6 it does not succeed in freeing objects from the cache. That is why it's leaking connections. In Zope 2.7 it will hopefully succeed in freeing the cached objects.
Ok, thanks for the explanation, I see this problem is known. cheers, oliver
