What do you mean "more often" ? Did the crash/OOM happen before the upgrade, too ?

That process is the one which was killed (in this case) but maybe not the
process responsible for using lots of *private* RAM. Is
salesdb.liveperson.intents a view ? What is the query plain for that query ?

This is almost certainly unrelated. It looks like that query did a seq scan
and accessed a large number of tuples (and pages from "shared_buffers"), which
the OS then shows as part of that processes memory, even though *shared*
buffers are not specific to that one process.
