OK, I can reproduce some memory bloat in 9.3, but not in 9.5 and up.
I believe this was fixed by commit b419865a8, which reduced the overhead
of running a lot of instances of array_agg() concurrently in a HashAgg
plan. I think your options are to live with it or upgrade. Or I guess
you could turn off enable_hashagg when using array_agg() plus GROUP BY,
though you'd want to remember to undo that whenever you do upgrade.
