Isn't it the maximum size, not minimal size? Maximum size allows to keep desired amount of system tables in memory as well as to control memory consumption to avoid out-of-memory errors (OS crash!). I'm wondering why people want to take a different approach to catcatch, which is unlike other PostgreSQL memory e.g. shared_buffers, temp_buffers, SLRU buffers, work_mem, and other DBMSs.
