postgres=# show shared_buffers ;
 shared_buffers

hmmm ...

Really the *first* thing you ought to do is update to current (10.13)
and see if the problem is still there.  But if it is, maybe collecting
a memory context map in that process would be informative:

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Developer_FAQ#Examining_backend_memory_use

Note you may need a debug build for that recipe to work.
