| Custom configuration for Postgresql can be done by adding to the files in the `./config/postgresql/conf.d/` directory.

| ## Deployment For Production | ||
| Some postgresql configuration parameters can be applied by reloading the configuration. Others will only take effect when the database is restarted. The detailed description of each configuration option (on postgresql v16) is avalable [here](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/16/runtime-config.html). The documentation for each setting generally indicates whether the setting requires a restart in order to take effect. |

The additions look sensible, but unfortunately this PR branch is based on quite an old version of the README.md, so it can't be merged as is.
