Now let me reply it myself.
When I changed memory.limit_in_bytes=300M， it worked.
memeory before sql statment execution and after sql statement execution is:
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$ free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2006 537 1469 0 30 242
-/+ buffers/cache: 265 1741
Swap: 4031 0 4031
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$ free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2006 687 1318 0 27 388
-/+ buffers/cache: 272 1734
Swap: 4031 129 3902
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$
