Even if I have a server with 16GB of ram, I must set the shared_buffer to
512MB on windows?
In the wiki page they talk about 1/4 of ram, in my case that represent a
shared_buffer = 4GB, that is incorrect?
I have 8 GB of ram for each processor, each processor is a quad core with
hyperthreading, that means 16 "processors" o something like that. Windows
show 16 in task manager.
If I can't configure more than 512MB of shared_buffer all other RAM is
unnecessary?
Thanks for your time.

The general guidelines for Windows servers such as
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Tuning_Your_PostgreSQL_Server recommend a
fairly small setting for the shared_buffers parameters on Windows--no more
than 512MB. That makes your server a bit less likely to run in the nasty
checkpoint spike issues Kevin was alluding to. I don't think we've seen any
reports of that on Windows. The problem is worst on Linux.
