Ideally, an SQL script that builds the DB and then a pg_dump command
that shows the high memory utilization. Based on the description of the
issue, the SQL script may need to only have the schema and not any of
the data. The point is that it's a self-contained set of scripts which
demonstrate the problem; iow, please put together the SQL script and the
pg_dump command, test that you still see the issue on a clean PG
instance, and then send those our way (if you're willing/able to share
the schema definition or whatever is necessary to replicate what you're
seeing).
Thanks!
