5) test and set it in initdb.
Are you advocating for that option, or just calling out that it's
possible? I'd say that's closely related to option #3, except at
initdb time rather than run-time - and it might be preferable to #3
for some of the same reasons discussed on the thread about tuning
work_mem, namely, that having it change from one postmaster lifetime
to the next might lead to user astonishment.
Mainly just to throw it into the mix, But like you I think it's probably
a better option than #3 for the reason you give. It also has the
advantage of keeping any probing code out of the backend.
