That would likely run into number-of-semaphores limitations (SEMMNI,
SEMMNS). We do not seem to have as good documentation about changing
that as we do about changing the SHMMAX setting, so I'm not sure I want
to buy into the "it's okay to expect people to fix this before they can
start Postgres the first time" argument here.
Also, max-connections doesn't silently skew your testing: if you need
to raise it, you *will* know it.
