FWIW, this query was rewritten pretty substantially in v15.
It's still going to produce a row per large object, but it
should be a lot narrower because most of the ACL-wrangling
now happens somewhere else. I don't know if migrating to
v15 instead of v14 is an option for you, and I can't promise
that that'd be enough savings to fix it anyway. But it's
something to think about.
