I sincerely apologize.  I should have read this stuff more closely.

I just don't get what all this fuss is about trying to get PG up on the smallest possible values for shared_buffers, especially considering this person has 1 TB of memory?

The fuss is why he can't make it bigger.  No one wants to make it as small as possible.

Here is shmall:
kernel.shmall = 17179869184

How did that get so small?  On my Ubuntu18.04, it comes out of the box at 2^64 - 1.  Why would anyone have set about making it smaller?  Now the current value should still be big enough, but I wonder what else got changed while someone was monkeying with things that didn't need to be monkeyed with.

Cheers,

Jeff
