Performace optimization depends on the workload...
Is that a dedicated server, only for PostgreSQL? I assume it.

Okay, as a first try, set shared_buffers to 2 GByte, and increase
work_mem up to, maybe, 20 MByte.
You can (and should) set log_min_duration_statement, maybe to 1000
(1000ms), and observe the log. Read our docu about EXPLAIN, and analyse
long-running queries with EXPLAIN (ANALYSE).
And again, performance tuning depends on the real workload on the
server, it's hard to give you a recipe for all use-cases.
