thanks for the advice. One question I have is if I increase the shared_buffers to 16GB, then it won't restart because for the 32 bit version of postgres , we can't have shared buffers more than 3.2 GB right ? ( this from various blogs that I have read )

observations. I also recommend you to install pgbouncer, and configure
it as transaction polling if you don't use prepared statements or as
statement pooling if you don't use transactions either. I also suggest
you to to perform VACUUM FULL or use
https://github.com/reorg/pg_repack or
https://github.com/grayhemp/pgtoolkit because your autovacuum was
configured inappropriately and you might have a lot of bloat in your
database.
