I have Lubuntu 14.04 (32-bit) on an i386 machine and have downloaded the interactive installer by EnterpriseDB for version 9.4.9 (postgresql-9.4.9-2-linux.run). As my usual approach for installing on Linux I have always chosen to install with PGDATA set as "/var/lib/postgresql/9.4" but I notice that the interactive installer prompts to use /opt rather than /var. What are the general thoughts regarding the recommended directory?
