(or choose a different plan?) Why don't you try that? Just set the work_mem to 1MB or so and run the query. I think it'll use the same plan but multiple batches - read just part of the inner table so that the hash table fits into work_mem, scan the outer table etc. The downside is it'd rescan the outer table several times.
