If your DB touches more than 100MB worth of buffers over time, shared
memory consumption won't peak at 100MB. PG shared buffers are only
"recycled" when there are no unused buffers available, so this isn't a
really valid way to determine the right shared_buffers setting.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
