If they did that there'll be a lot fewer programs out there.
There have been lots of popular stuff written by incompetent/ignorant people.
If there were such a rule, it'll just be one more
important thing they weren't aware of (or choose to ignore).
Anyway, I personally think that having "small,
medium, large" configs would be useful, at least as examples.
On a related note: is it possible to have a
config where you can be certain that postgresql
will not use more than X MB of memory (and still work OK)?
