Oh? Postgres doesn't spell its out-of-memory errors that way. Please
quote the *exact* message you got, not some approximation.
Also, if this was a server-side out-of-memory problem, there should be a
memory usage dump appearing in the postmaster log, which would help
identify exactly what the problem is.
