Out of curiosity, how feasible is it for the rpm/package/deb/exe
maintainers to modify their supplied postgresql.conf settings when
building said distribution? AFAIK the minimum default SHHMAX setting on
Red Hat 8.0 is 32MB, seems like bumping shared buffers to work with that
amount would be acceptable inside the 8.0 rpm's.
