On any modern system, set shared_buffers to 25% of instance RAM, and get on with life.

I realize that seems glib, but small variations in shared_buffers make almost no significant difference in performance.
There are unusual workloads (like very high insert rate with few queries) that require different settings, but for most
typicalELTP or data warehouse workloads, that is sufficient.
