Can someone update the PostgreSQL shared memory usage table for 9.0?

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/kernel-resources.html#SYSVIPC

Right now it says "Approximate shared memory bytes required (as of
8.3)".

This documentation still says as of 8.3. If they are unchanged, can I
just remove the version mention?

Mentioning the version was intentional, so that people could gauge how
obsolete the information might be. I certainly think it'd be
inappropriate to remove that caution flag right now, when the SSI patch
has likely blown those numbers all to heck.

OK, thanks. I was hoping that either the numbers are stable, or we are
always going to update them for every major release, but alas, seems
what we do now is the best option.
