One thing that truly annoys me about postgresql.conf is say I unhash an
option and set it to something. Then I reload. Then I edit the conf
and hash it out again, then I reload. Of course, the option still has
my old value. This is really annoying and I've wasted lots of time
trying to figure out what's going on.
