Right now following are measured in pages
wal_buffers
shared_buffers
effective_cachesize
Following are in kbs
work_mem
maintenance_work_mem
max_stack_depth
while rest of the memory parameters are in kb. I thought being uniform would
be good. Besides it will make it independent of page size as well.
