You should set effective cache size to bit more realistic than 1000. That's 
just 8MB.

I would also suggest you setting autocommit to off, in case that makes any 
difference. If the application is entirely managing it's own transactions 
explicitly this should not make any difference.

If youhave good disks like SCSI/IDE RAID or above, you can reduce 
random_page_cost to 2 or even less.

For heavily updated systems, you should have WAL buffers bit more. I don't know 
exact imact of that setting though. You could try 32/64/128. On the same note, 
if you are getting checkpoints too frequently, you can try increasing 
checkpoint segments. The logs will tell as such.
