That's a bit painful to slog through to find what was changed from the 
defaults.  How about saving the output from this query instead, or in 
addition to the version sorted by name:

select name,setting,source,short_desc from pg_settings order by 
source,name;

Makes it easier to ignore everything that isn't set.

That's basically where the suggestions for center points I made came from. 
The only other thing that does that might be interesting to examine is 
that it bumps up checkpoint_completion_target to 0.9 once you've got a 
large number of checkpoint_segments.
