Don't have any installation links on hand, but here's stuff I'd recommend
looking at:
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/docs/faq-english.html#1.10
Performance tuning stuff
http://techdocs.postgresql.org/techdocs/pgsqldbtuning.php
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/docs/momjian/hw_performance/
Also, although not necessarily postgres specific, you might want to check
out the book An Introduction to Database Systems by CJ Date. It's a bit
pricy though.
