I saw this just now:

while running 50 cascading instances on a single machine.

Sorry, that was probably too terse, I should explain that a little.

After initing 50 instances, I set up and run a pgbench session in the master session; the pgbench lines are:

  init: pgbench --port=6515 --quiet --initialize --scale=1 postgres
  run:  pgbench -M prepared -c 16 -j 8 -T 1 -P 1 -n postgres -- scale 1

the other instances then catch up.  The whole takes 5 minutes or so

I vary scale, duration, and number of instances. I haven't had it fail in this way yet but I mostly tried with lower number of instances (up to 25 or so).

select version():
PostgreSQL 11devel_HEAD_20171219_2158_7d3583ad9ae5 on
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Debian 6.3.0-18) 6.3.0 20170516,
64-bit


I don't know if the admittedly somewhat crazy 50 instances make that
error acceptable/expected but I thought I'd report it anyway.

thanks,
