Dear Tom,
thank you for the reply.
Tonight this problem happened again:

We were automatically bulkling a table that archive system logging.
We used a pg_bulk, but not a create or replace function.
That process often use lots of memory.
Just one question: do you think is it possible to disable that logging sentence?
Thank you!
Francesco

You realize, of course, that 8.4.x has been out of support for a couple of
years now.

This appears to be a fragment of a memory map that would be produced
in conjunction with an "out of memory" error. It's difficult to say
much more than that with only this much information, but clearly you
need to do something to prevent recurrent out-of-memory errors.
If looking at the map as a whole makes it clear that it's zillions
of CachedPlans that are chewing up most of the memory, then I would
guess that they are getting leaked as a result of constantly replacing
plpgsql functions --- does your application do a lot of
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION commands? I don't think plpgsql coped
with that very well before 9.1.
regards, tom lane
