Surely preloading is the most realistic approach, but I hope we would support dynamic allocation of shared memory, and load dictionaries in the area and share it with backends. We should avoid additonal calls of shmget() or mmap() in the additional shared memory allocation, but we can shrink shared buffers and reuse the area for general purposes. We often have serveral GB of shared buffers nowadays, so dividing some MB of buffers will not be problem.
