There are some workloads where even larger settings for shared_buffers are effective, but because PostgreSQL also relies on the operating system cache, it is unlikely that an allocation of more than 40% of RAM to shared_buffers will work better than a smaller amount."

effective_cache_size is a hint as to how much RAM is available for the operating system file cache after all other uses are taken into account.
