TBH, I think that's another reason for not release-noting it. There's
no concrete change to point to, and so it's hard to figure out what
to say. I'm not even very sure that we should be encouraging people
to change existing shared_buffers settings; the experiments that
Takayuki-san did were only on Windows 10, so we don't really know that
changing that would be a good idea on older Windows versions.
