Re: PostgreSQL uses more memory on 6.1?

You need to adjust the shared memory segments allowed by the kernel; see

Nope, I took care of that:

/etc/sysctl.conf:

kern.ipc.semmap=256
kern.ipc.shmmax=268435456

/boot/loader.conf

kern.ipc.semmni="256"
kern.ipc.semmns="512"
kern.ipc.semmnu="256"

Furthermore, neither of those files (or even my kernel config file) changed
between the previous reboot and the one that installed 6.1. At any rate,
the kern.ipc.shmmax is much, much greater than the 64MB that I'd been using
before for shared_buffers (8192 buffers * 8 KB/buffer).
