IMO this pretty much proves that the memory allocated for BufFile really
is the root cause of the issues with this query. 524288 batches means
up to 1048576 BufFiles, which is a bit more than ~8GB of RAM. However
those for the inner relation were not allycated yet, so at this point
only about 4GB might be allocated. And it seems ~1/2 of them did not
receive any tuples, so only about 2GB got allocated so far.
The second batch will probably make it fail much sooner, because it
allocates the BufFile stuff eagerly (both for inner and outer side).
