That's a lot if you are using the latest version.
There are several links and blogs related on this, here you have some
I found quickly:
http://rhaas.blogspot.com.es/2012/03/tuning-sharedbuffers-and-walbuffers.html
http://www.depesz.com/2012/06/09/how-much-ram-is-postgresql-using/
Try to filter those which are quite old if you don't want to mess up
with configuration variables like max_fsm_pages, etc.
