I was thinking of Erik Jones' report of TopMemoryContext bloat in a
database with 200000 tables (in pre-8.3 code).  But I guess this still
doesn't fit, because any leakage induced by vacuum() would have been in
AutovacMemCxt, and that wasn't what he saw.  So I still don't know what
was happening with Erik's issue.
