With 8GB RAM you should be able to increase shared_buffer to 1GB or maybe even higher especially if this is a dedicated server.
240MB is pretty conservative for a server with that amount of RAM (unless you have many other applications running on that box)

Also what are the values for

cpu_tuple_cost
seq_page_cost
random_page_cost
effective_cache_size

What kind of harddisk is in the server? SSD? Regular ones (spinning disks)?
