I'mwondering if anyone has been able to come up with a reliable method for determining the HugePages requirements for a
PGcluster based on the GUC values (that would be known at deployment time).
It also depends on modules like pg_stat_statements and their own
configuration. I think that you can find the required size that your
current configuration will allocate with:
SELECT sum(allocated_size) FROM pg_shmem_allocations ;
