Just to make sure: You're certain this was an actual memory leak, not just vacuum ending up having referenced all of shared_buffers? Unless you use huge pages, RSS increases over time, as a process touched more and more pages in shared memory. Of course that couldn't explain rising above shared_buffers + overhead.

If you have 1.8 million tables in a single database, what you saw might just have been the size of the relation and catalog caches.
