Re: Multiple databases and shared_buffers
What do you mean that the data is actually not stored in the shared buffer.
From the link you provided :
"The “shared_buffers” configuration parameter determines how much memory
is dedicated to PostgreSQL to use for caching data."
This seems to be the same like other RDBMS. Typically the terminology used is Buffer Pool.
BP is used to cache the changes done to a page and the page cleaning

Does PG follow a different architecture ?

That being said, It looks to me like you have a misunderstanding about how PostgreSQL uses shared_buffers. Data is not actually stored in the shared_buffers.
Please refer to the following url which explains it's usage. --

can determine it's pertenance.
