does 16GB shared_buffers really give that much better performance than 2
or 4 GB for your application, under a development workload?
effective_cache_size is not an allocation, its just an estimate of how
much system cache is likely to contain recently accessed postgres data,
the planner uses it guess the cost of 'disk' accesses.
