Hi,
So it couldn't allocate 50MB of dynamic shared memory. Can you show
the work_mem settings, the query plan with the two different work_mem
settings (the one that works and the one that doesn't), the value of
dynamic_shared_memory_type, and tell us how much memory and swap space
you have? Do you run many of these queries in parallel? I guess this
is probably a parallel query using parallel bitmap heapscan and seeing
the error coming from the change in commit
899bd785c0edf376077d3f5d65c316f92c1b64b5, meaning that it would have
risked death by SIGBUS before that commit. What is surprising is that
increasing work_mem helped.
