I know of one site that builds their Virtual Websites into
chroot()'d environments...something like this would be perfect for them,
as it would prvent them having to recompile for each individual size...
But...initdb would have to have an appropriate option...and we'd
have to have a mechanism in place that checks that -k parameter is
actually appropriate.
Would it not make a little more sense to have a pg_block_size file
created in the data directory that postmaster reads at startup?
