I suspect that fooling with shared_buffers is entirely the wrong tree for you to be barking up. My suggestion is to be looking at individual queries that are slow, and seeing how to speed those up. This might involve adding indexes, or tweaking the query source, or adjusting planner parameters, or several other things.
