and, perhaps effective_cache_size.
You can have situation where you don't want some tables go to OS memory (you
can disabled that at filesystem level, ... l'd like to be able to do that at
postgres level but it is another point)
So you put those tables in a separate tablespace, and tell postgresql that the
effective_cache_size is 0 (for this tablespace), up to postgres to do the right
thing with that ;)
