I'm looking at tuning a PostgreSQL installation and I'm finding the documentation confusing. (I'll also add that tuning in general is a mystery to me!) What are the main 'knobs' that can be used to tune PostgreSQL? If someone can tell me that I can concentrate on learning about those those initially. Maybe there isn't a subset that can be considered to be core for tuning? PostgreSQL 8.3 or 8.4 on RHEL 4 and 5.
