There is at least anecdotal evidence that Windows servers degrade when
shared_buffers is set above 512Mb. Personally, I would not recommend
using Windows for a high performance server.
Also, it makes no sense to have a lower setting for maintenance_work_mem
than for work_mem. You would normally expect maintenance_work_mem to be
higher - sometimes much higher.
Apart from that, it's going to be impossible to tell what your problem
is without seeing actual slow running queries and their corresponding
explain analyse output.
