Where 8,192 fits
Why 8,192 is special
8,192 is the size a great deal of software moves data in without anyone deciding it consciously: default pipe buffers, database page sizes, and the block size of many filesystems. PostgreSQL stores everything in 8 KiB pages, which is why its size limits are the multiples of 8,192 they are.

Technology & computing
8 KiB is the default unit a surprising amount of software moves data in — PostgreSQL pages, many filesystem blocks, standard pipe buffers. It is large enough to amortise per-operation overhead and small enough to avoid wasting memory on partial fills, and once one layer picks it the layers above tend to match.
