I take that back. There actually is some paging going on. I ran sar -g 5
10 and when a request was made (totally about 10 DB queries) my pgout/s
jumped to 5.8 and my ppgout/s jumped to 121.8. pgfree/s also jumped to
121.80.

Indeed.
If you DO run into trouble after giving Postgres more RAM, use the vmstat
command.
You can use this command like "vmstat 10". (ignore the first line)
Keep an eye on the "pi" and "po" parameters. (kilobytes paged in and out)

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)
