After upgrading the postgresql*-8.4 packages on ubuntu, to version 8.4.9, the script suddenly stopped working, and consuming all the ram (16GB) on the computer (i7).
If there is one query exhausting all ram, then it could be tricky to catch it in the logs (log duration and friends log the query time on completion... which might be never). If you have vm.overcommit_memory set to 2 then you may get the offending statement in the log when the postgres backend errors out with ENOMEM.
If you know the approx time at which memory starts filling up then getting (most of) the query text from pg_stat_activity would enable you to track down the offending sql in your load script.
