This is the Pg backend line from top after about 90 minutes runtime :
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 16083 postgres 17 0 9172 9172 8524 R 94.7 2.4 84:59.68 postmaster
No sign of the shared growth stopping at this stage...
Pg built with --disable-debug --without-zlib
Platform is Linux 2.4.21+ xfs (Mandrake 9.2beta)

I can hardly imagine that the backend started working with 9mb of memory. what did you do that PostgreSQL needed so much memory from the beginning??? are you using the default settings? usually the postmaster does not need more than 3mb at startup (in this scenario).
