pgTune is a nice utility for tuning Postgres running on an 80386 with 12 MB
of memory.

Seriously, it is dated and will produce erroneous indications for
remediation. If one follows those indications blindly, particularly given
our large-memory servers, the results will likely be catastrophically bad.
