This is very probably an OpenVZ issue, it can be solved by bringing down the shared_buffers a lot.
The restart works because the server is in fact down. I think pg_lsclusters showed online because of a stale runfile.

Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

This is postgresql 9.1 on Ubuntu 12.04 on OpenVZThe weirdest thing is that restarting the postgres cluster fixed it.
