Estimate the maximum amount of database connections

Hello,

Does anyone have statistics or an estimate from personal experience on the maximum amount of database connections Sentry establishes? For example, currently SELECT count(*) FROM pg_stat_activity; reports 3 connections. But I assume there’ll be more when the events come pouring in. Feel free to assume a sample load of 1000 events per hour, with rare peaks of 50000 events per hour.

Thanks!

We would highly recommend just using pgbouncer.
