There was a report of the stats monitor dying under heavy load just the
other day.  And the lack of testing in a heavy load environment would
keep me from putting the two in the data center together just now, but
it's certainly good enough for workgroup / internal use.

I do not know.  I'd imagine giving PostgreSQL a bit of extra memory for
shared buffers would help.  I don't know if you'd have to reconfigure
any part of windows to make it possible, or just change the setting in
postgresql.conf
