"15TB" and "16TB" are pretty low-resolution. For example, 15.4TB rounds down to 15TB, while 15.6TB rounds up to 16TB, while they are in fact only 200GB apart.
Heck, even 15.4TB and 15.6TB are low-resolution. temp_file_limit may actually be working.
temp_file_limit limits the space a process may use on disk while the OOM
killer gets activated when the system runs out of RAM. So these seem to
be unrelated.

Its clear that oom killer is triggered by RAM and temp_file is a disk thing...But the sudden growth of disk space usage and RAM did happen exactly at the very same time, with only one user connected, and only one query running...
If your question is about temp_file_limit, don't distract us with OOM issues.
