This is covered in more depth in the Admin documentation, chapter 3.5. An
online version can be found at:
http://postgresql.readysetnet.com/devel-corner/docs/admin/kernel-resources.html
Specifically, it says:
"FreeBSD, OpenBSD
The options SYSVSHM and SYSVSEM need to be enabled when the kernel is
compiled. (They are by default.) The maximum size of shared memory is
determined
by the option SHMMAXPGS (in pages). The following shows an example of how to
set the various parameters:
options SYSVSHM
options SHMMAXPGS=4096
options SHMSEG=256
options SYSVSEM
options SEMMNI=256
options SEMMNS=512
options SEMMNU=256
options SEMMAP=256
