Assuming you have PostgreSQL installed the next place to look is the docs -
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/runtime-config.html
starts explaining the configuration options you have.

http://www.powerpostgresql.com/Downloads/annotated_conf_80.html
will explain these settings some more.

Some others to look at (in no particular order) -
http://www.informit.com/articles/printerfriendly.asp?p=24663&rl=1
http://www.varlena.com/GeneralBits/Tidbits/perf.html
http://www.powerpostgresql.com/PerfList

In a more general approach most SQL references explain good database
design - the way you design your tables and specify your indexes can
make a difference just as much as changing the right server option can.
