Seems the same to me, so I will disregard that.

anythingin the configuration that prevents the shared memory from being used?
I am not too current with postgres, that one was a thing which
happened to me when I did more administration, and is one you always
want to check. I assume you have all checked, but I would follow by
insuring every mounted partition in your system has space. I am not
current on the details, but I know Pg can be mmaping things and doing
other stuff. Your problem seems more of resource exhaustion, so I
would follow by checking that, both disk, tmpfs and all the other
stuff. I cannot give you advice on that as it depends a lot on your
server configuration and from the age in the mssages I suspect you
have the usual suspects debugged. But as you have a configuration
crahsing in minutes and it seems to be a dev server you could do it
easily.
Sorry.
