By definition temp tables are per session. If you want them shared then 
you want something other than temp tables.

And they are not always in memory either - otherwise what would happen 
to a temp  table that was bigger than available memory?

Lastly, this is the wrong list for this question - this list is about 
postgres development. You should ask questions like this on pgsql-general.
