Well, I'd think that's were your problem is. Not only you have a
(relatively speaking) small server -- you also share it with other
very-memory-hungry services! That's not a situation I'd like to be in.
Try putting Apache and Tomcat elsewhere, and leave the bulk of the 1GB
to Postgres. With 1500 shared buffers you are not really going
anywhere -- you should have ten times that at the very least.
