According to Oracle "set to a value half the size of physical memory".

I've been talking to an Oracle DBA and he said that they are setting
this to something between 70-80% on a dedicated database server. As long

EnterpriseDB advocates: 250 KB + 8.2 KB * shared_buffers + 14.2 kB *
max_connections up to infinity
