+For procedural languages and postgresql functions, please note that
+you might have to update them when updating the server.
+
+If you have many tables and many clients running, consider raising
+kern.maxfiles using sysctl(8), or reconfigure your kernel
+appropriately.
+
+The port is set up to use autovacuum for new databases, but you might
+also want to vacuum and perhaps backup your database regularly. There
+is a periodic script, %%PREFIX%%/etc/periodic/daily/502.pgsql, that
+you may find useful. You can use it to backup and perfom vacuum on all
+databases nightly. Per default, it perfoms `vacuum analyze'. See the
+script for instructions. For autovacuum settings, please review
+~pgsql/data/postgresql.conf.
+
+To allow many simultaneous connections to your PostgreSQL server, you
+should raise the SystemV shared memory limits in your kernel. Here are
+example values for allowing up to 180 clients (configurations in
+postgresql.conf also needed, of course):
+  options         SYSVSHM
+  options         SYSVSEM
+  options         SYSVMSG
+  options         SHMMAXPGS=65536
+  options         SEMMNI=40
+  options         SEMMNS=240
+  options         SEMUME=40
+  options         SEMMNU=120
+
+If you plan to access your PostgreSQL server using ODBC, please
+consider running the SQL script %%PREFIX%%/share/postgresql/odbc.sql
+to get the functions required for ODBC compliance.
+
+Please note that if you use the rc script,
+%%PREFIX%%/etc/rc.conf/postgresql, to initialize the database, unicode
+(UTF-8) will be used to store character data by default.  Set
+postgresql_initdb_flags or use login.conf settings described below to
+alter this behaviour. See the start rc script for more info.
+
+To set limits, environment stuff like locale and collation and other
+things, you can set up a class in /etc/login.conf before initializing
+the database. Add something similar to this to /etc/login.conf:
+---
+postgres:\
+	:lang=en_US.UTF-8:\
+	:setenv=LC_COLLATE=C:\
+	:tc=default:
+---
+and run `cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf'.
+Then add 'postgresql_class="postgres"' to /etc/rc.conf.
+
+======================================================================
+
+To initialize the database, run
+
+  %%PREFIX%%/etc/rc.d/postgresql initdb
+
+You can then start PostgreSQL by running:
+
+  %%PREFIX%%/etc/rc.d/postgresql start
+
+For postmaster settings, see ~pgsql/data/postgresql.conf
+
+NB. FreeBSD's PostgreSQL port logs to syslog by default
+    See ~pgsql/data/postgresql.conf for more info
+
+======================================================================
+
+To run PostgreSQL at startup, add
+'postgresql_enable="YES"' to /etc/rc.conf
+
