For a read-only database, as was discussed, a lower shared_buffers settings makes sense. And 128M is low enough, I'd guess. Setting work_mem to hundreds of MB in a 4G system is suicide. Tens even is dangerous. -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
