I have very successfully used multiple hundreds and even low thousands of partitions without running out of memory under the older inheritance based "partitioning", and declarative partitioning is supposed to be (and we have advertised it to be) better, not worse, isn't it? At least from my point of view if 100 partitions is unusable due to memory leaks it is a regression. Perhaps not *technically* a regression assuming it behaves this way in pg10 also, but I bet lots of users would see it that way.
