Thank you for your answer. I think the value of shmall I have is very common cause I've seen it many times in other servers.Do you think there maybe a link between the request size of postgres and the swap size?
Here is the output of free -m
free -m             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cachedMem:          7867       1860       6007          0          5        595-/+ buffers/cache:       1258       6609Swap:         1023          2       1021
