If postmaster is being started by init, it should not need nohup, because
init never exits and postmaster is not going to get shutdown unexpectedly.

nohup has a performance cost, in that (at least on Linux) it automatically
nices (lowers the priority of) the process. You may not want the
priority lowered...
