Mine in similar, and the only thing I have changed from defaults is
work_mem. It made certain complex queries go from taking forever to
taking seconds. I have a database connection pool limited to 10
connections, so I set it to 10MB. That means (to me, anyway) that
work_mem will never gobble more then 100MB. Seems OK since I have
1GB.
Free space map should probably be tweaked too, if you have lots of
updates or deletes. I think.
