Hi I just checked the dmesg.
The segfault I wrote about is the only one I see, dated Nov 24 last year.
Since then no other segfaults happened although dsa_allocated failures happen daily.
I'll report if anything occurs.
I have the core dumping setup in place.

Thomas fixed several bugs in DSA, which will be in next release, postgres 10.8
and 11.3.
However that doesn't explain the segfault you saw, and I don't see anything
which looks relevant changed since in 10.5.
If you still see that using the latest minor release (10.7), please try to
capture a core file and send a backtrace with a new thread on pgsql-hackers.
Thanks,
Justin
