node-postgres: Error: read ECONNRESET

Hi brianc, this is my first Bug report, so please don’t blame me for bad style:)

I have an issue with loosing connections. This happens after upgrading to node v0.10.1. I used v.8x? before and it worked. I am developing with Windows 8.

Maybe this happens because the Garbage Collector was modified in the new release? I wrote a simple mocha test that shows the problem. var pg = require(‘pg’);

describe('pg', function(){
  this.timeout(65000);
  describe('connection', function() {
    it("should throw no error for 1 min", function(testDone) {

      pg.on("error", function(e){
        //"Error: read ECONNRESET" is thrown for me after 30sec
        testDone(e)
      });

      pg.connect("tcp://postgres:1234@localhost/postgres", function(err, client, done){
        client.query("select 'something'", function(err, result){
          done();
          if (err) return testDone (err);

          setTimeout(function(){
            testDone();
          }, 60000);
        });
      })
    });
  });
})

Debugging this lead me to the assumption, that it is caused by the garbage collector, that is trying to destroy the tcp socket used by the database, but maybe I am completly wrong with this.
