PostgreSQL tips that change actual numbers: loading PL/R/PostGIS into shared_preload_libraries cuts first-call latency from ~229 ms to under 1 ms and speeds PostGIS first calls ~3x; switching wal_level to minimal and raising max_wal_size shrinks 100k transactions from ~135 MB to ~82 MB of WAL; setting static-index FILLFACTOR to 100% trims index size ~10%; setting join_collapse_limit avoids huge planner overhead (planning was 6× execution in an example), and tuning function costs drops a case from ~2.6s to ~2.1s.
