There are a lot of good reasons for people to be running an instance
of PostgreSQL on a small machine, running it on a machine with other
software, or running many clusters of PostgreSQL on a single machine. 
It may not be possible for this tool to generate useful values for all
of these situations, but it seems to me that should be viewed as a
limitation of the tool, rather than some moral failing on the part of
the people with those needs.  Let's cover what we can, document the
limitations, and avoid any user-hostile tones....
