I've found this page helpful: http://www.lyris.com/lm_help/6.0/tuning_postgresql.html

Does anyone know if there is a more "official" source of information like that?

Is there a good way to tell how much physical space a table takes on

relpages is number of pages of 8 K that needs the table to be stored.
