Well, time to plug my web site, too, I guess:
http://www.powerpostgresql.com

I've got a configuration primer up there, and the 8.0 Annotated .Conf file 
will be coming this week.

That web site runs on Framewerk, a PostgreSQL-based CMS developed by our own 
Gavin Roy.

Matt,
 

I had one comment on the pg_autovacuum section.  Near the bottom it
lists some of it's limitations, and I want to clarify the 1st one: "Does
not reset the transaction counter".  I assume this is talking about the
xid wraparound problem?  If so, then that bullet can be removed.
pg_autovacuum does check for xid wraparound and perform a database wide
vacuum analyze when it's needed.
   

Keen.   That's an 8.0 fix?
Nope, been there since before 7.4 was released.
