So sorry about that;
I'll repost it here, corrected, for others to use who wants to exhaust their memory:

--PG-14.1

CREATE TABLE public.part_main (
    txid bigint,
    actiondate timestamp without time zone NOT NULL
);

insert into part_main
select x, '2019-06-01'::timestamp + x%365 * interval '1 day'
from generate_series(1, 30 * 1E6) as x;

CREATE INDEX partindx ON public.part_main USING btree ((actiondate::date));  -- mem bug?
-- CREATE INDEX partindx ON public.part_main USING btree (actiondate); -- no bug
-- mem runaway follows
update part_main set txid = txid + 1;
