It occures when I set "shared_buffers =
768M" ("maintenance_work_mem = 512MB").
Related sysctl settings are:
kern.seminfo.semmni=4096
kern.seminfo.semmns=4096
kern.seminfo.semmnu=256
kern.shminfo.shmall=1073741824
kern.shminfo.shmmax=838860800
kern.shminfo.shmmni=8192
kern.shminfo.shmseg=1024
My machine has 2G RAM. And I want make postgres utilize it...
512MB is way too much maintenance_work_mem for normal running on a
machine with 2GB of RAM. Try backing that off to about 128MB.
Notice that the request size that's failing is equal to your
maintenance_work_mem.
