Folks:
I'm not clear on where the memory needed by max_fsm_pages comes from. Is it
taken out of the shared_buffers, or in addition to them?
Further, Joe Conway gave me a guesstimate of 6k per max_fsm_pages which seems
rather high ... in fact, the default settings for this value (10000) would
swamp the memory used by the rest of Postgres. Does anyone have a good
measurment of the memory load imposed by higher FSM settings?
