work_mem = 262144
I'm still trying to figure out how to track the memory usage in
ExecutorState

Tom?
A hash join could suck a lot of memory in HashBatchContext, but what
seems wrong about your report is all that memory in ExecutorState.
Please see if you can track where that went.
BTW, what was work_mem set to in this example? In theory the
HashBatchContext shouldn't get much bigger than work_mem.
