I'd watch the systems' memory usage as shown by `top` or `free`... as
long as the 'cached' value (add in 'free' if its significant) stays
reasonably large (say, 25-50% of your total ram), you're in good shape.
using values as small as the defaults likely will degrade performance of
the queries.    postgres will behave somewhat more optimally if the
'estimated_cache_size' is near the 'cached' value.
