It depends on how write-heavy the database will be, how much memory
you have to spare, and what sort of data you keep in it.  I'm
absolutely certain you will need to alter the config from the
defaults.  It's set up to be very conservative by default.

But take a look at http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Tuning_Your_PostgreSQL_Server
