Seems like the system has 98 gb, and shared_buffers set to 16 gb, so if
we increase max_fsm_relations to 100000, should be still enough memory
to start, right?
Thank you!

Adrian,
Thanks for your help. It seems like the system has 98 gb memory on the
server overall
max_connections = 300

We haven't yet, still waiting for the approval from our management

Adrian, I am trying to avoid to do any tweaking to this legacy system
that nobody knows well (we inherited it recently).
Yeah, but you already tweaked it, so it is useful to know what the
repercussions might be.
Do you think it might help if we possibly drop old tables (I assume
their indices will be removed too), so the overall number of objects
will go down? Thanks a lot
Yes. Just not sure when that will happen.

What is the impact of fsm_relatiosn being maxed out?
It has been awhile since I thought about this as these settings are no
longer relevant as of 8.4:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/release-8-4.html
"
Track free space in separate per-relation "fork" files (Heikki)
Free space discovered by VACUUM is now recorded in *_fsm files, rather
than in a fixed-sized shared memory area. The max_fsm_pages and
max_fsm_relations settings have been removed, greatly simplifying
administration of free space management.

To get to your question, I would take a look at:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/runtime-config-resource.html#RUNTIME-CONFIG-RESOURCE-FSM
Pay attention to the embedded link in the above:
