I think that a read-only installation of PostgreSQL would be a very poor
demonstration of its capabilities.  Better put the data in a RAM disk.

RAM space is limited.

I was thinking more of a demonstration CD of some other software that uses PostgreSQL as kind of an embedded database. Of course, there's other databases more suited for embedding.
