That shouldn't matter --- ANALYZE actually deliberately ignores
very-wide values so as not to run out of memory.

You sure you haven't changed default_statistics_target?

I'd think you'd uncovered a memory leak in ANALYZE, except that somebody
else would have found any such thing before now.  Which PG version are
you using exactly?
