      Reduce default value of max_prepared_transactions from 50 to 5. This · 037709e0
      Tom Lane authored
      saves nearly 700kB in the default shared memory segment size, which seems
      worthwhile, and it is a feature that many users won't use anyway.  Per
      Heikki's argument, there is no point in a compromise value --- those who
      are using 2PC at all will probably want it at least equal to max_connections.
      But we can't set it to zero by default without breaking the prepared_xacts
      regression test.

    # PostgreSQL configuration file
    # -----------------------------
    #
    # This file consists of lines of the form:
    #
    #   name = value
    #
    # (The '=' is optional.) White space may be used. Comments are introduced
    # with '#' anywhere on a line. The complete list of option names and
    # allowed values can be found in the PostgreSQL documentation. The
    # commented-out settings shown in this file represent the default values.
    #
    # Please note that re-commenting a setting is NOT sufficient to revert it
    # to the default value, unless you restart the postmaster.
    #
    # Any option can also be given as a command line switch to the
    # postmaster, e.g. 'postmaster -c log_connections=on'. Some options
    # can be changed at run-time with the 'SET' SQL command.
    #
    # This file is read on postmaster startup and when the postmaster
    # receives a SIGHUP. If you edit the file on a running system, you have 
    # to SIGHUP the postmaster for the changes to take effect, or use 
    # "pg_ctl reload". Some settings, such as listen_address, require
    # a postmaster shutdown and restart to take effect.
