I have a similar system. It's a dual PII-450MHz Xeon with 512MB of RAM
running RH7.1 and 7.1.2. As far as performance tuning goes, here's the
relevant lines from the postgresql.conf file we're using:
max_connections = 64 # 1-1024
sort_mem = 8192
shared_buffers = 192
fsync = false
Obviously, depending on your needs, you can adjust those. If you've
got a 1GB of RAM, I'd set everything high and not worry about it.
