General error: 7 server closed the connection unexpectedly

[jakenoble]

When running many (1,000s) of fixtures Postgres crashes with no error and no error in its log file. The crash just states;

 SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 7 server closed the connection unexpectedly
  	This probably means the server terminated abnormally
  	before or while processing the request.

• Is this a known issue or just a byproduct of running lots of fixtures?
• Is there a known workaround?
  • splitting up fixtures?
  • Postgres config changes?

I honestly cannot say. You would need to double check your postgresql logs. I don't think 1k fixtures is that big of a deal and I've certainly handled way more in the past.

Closing as I really cannot help without more information, and I'm pretty certain the library manages several thousand of objects just fine. How much your DB can handle though is specific to you, worst case you will have to batch the persisting of the aggregates
