Well, if you were to provide a reproducible test case, somebody might be
motivated to look into it. There could be a memory leak in the planner
somewhere, but without a test case it's not very practical to go look
for it.
Would a Perl-based script that built up a database like that be a useful
test case for you?
Yeah, sure, just something that somebody else can run to duplicate the
problem.
For what it's worth, I discovered something quite interesting. The
memory usage only blows out when I do an update based on the results of
the query.
Hm, is the update target an inheritance tree?
The target is the parent table of a bunch of partitions.
The actual rows being updated live in those child tables.
