Yep, obviously. I was first surprised that the DecrTupleDescRefCount() done in ExecDropSingleTupleTableSlot() would not be enough to free the TupleDesc. We do some allocations for dynamically-allocated resources like what pgoutput does in the SRF code, if I recall correctly, as these need are a problem across multiple calls and the query-level memory context would not do this cleanup.. -- Michael
