Did you use some kind of sensical naming convention for the child tables? If so, couldn't you write a script to loop through and drop them one at a time?

Hey everyone,
I created a master table, and created ~2000 partitions for it.
*no* data is in any of these partitions.
I am trying to drop the master and all of the partitions with a cascade:
DROP TABLE master CASCADE;
Except after about 30 seconds my memory usage (4GB) jumps to 99%, and after about 10 minutes it kills over and drops my connection.
How do you delete a master and all of its partitions?
Thanks!
George
