The general guidelines for Windows servers such as 
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Tuning_Your_PostgreSQL_Server recommend 
a fairly small setting for the shared_buffers parameters on Windows--no 
more than 512MB.  That makes your server a bit less likely to run in the 
nasty checkpoint spike issues Kevin was alluding to.  I don't think 
we've seen any reports of that on Windows.  The problem is worst on Linux.
