Hello,
I'm not sure whether this is connected at all, but I'm facing the same error with a generated query on postgres 10.6.
It works with parallel query disabled and gives "dsa_allocate could not find 7 free pages" otherwise.
I've attached query and strace. The table is partitioned on (o, date). It's not depended on the precise lists I'm
using,while it obviously does depend on the fact that the optimizer chooses a parallel query.
Regards
Arne Roland

crashing.Since this is a production environment, I cannot get the stack trace. Once turned off parallel execution for
thisnode. The whole query finished just fine. So the parallel query plan is from one of the nodes not crashed,
hopefullythe same plan would have been executed on the crashed node. In theory, every worker node has the same bits,
andvery similar data.
I wonder if this was a different symptom of the problem fixed here:

Can you still reproduce it on current master, REL_11_STABLE or REL_10_STABLE?
