What precisely do you mean by "run out of memory" - is this work-mem or shared-mem? How do you know this is what's happening?

What memory are you trying to reserve for PostgreSQL? Is it shared-mem you're talking about? If you let us know where you found the manuals confusing, we can try to improve them.
