A quick look at the source code finds
appendPQExpBufferStr(&catalog_query, " ORDER BY c.relpages DESC;");
so apparently it's trying to process them in descending size order, although this doesn't account for indexes or toast tables.
Toast tables... when I wrote my email, I was wondering about that. TOAST is what comprises the "bigness" of the 800 lb gorillas, but combining table plus toast would be pretty messy.
