going over 2GB probably doesn't help

work_mem depends a lot of your queries and the number of clients, but
with 32GB RAM setting a default work_mem of 128MB would probably not
hurt. Your maintenance_work_mem is too low, raise it to 2GB.

if it's a dedicated server you can raise it to 24GB

depends of your load, 10's reasonable for light loads. 50 or 100 isn't
uncommon for heavier ones. Keep in mind that every increase
of 30 will cost you 1 gigabyte of disk space in pg_xlog and an extra
~2-5 minutes (depends of your i/o) of recovery time after a crash.

It's considered as a bad habit to change the cost settings, but I often
raise the default cpu_tuple_cost to 0.08 (instead of 0.01) too.
