Shared buffers even on a workstation should be higher than 1000 if you 
want some performance.  It depends how much memory you have spare to use 
for PostgreSQL.  But something like
shared_buffers = 20000
maintenance_work_mem = 256000

Will certainly give you a performance boost.  You will have to adjust 
those figures based on whatever else you are doing on the machine.
