Whoa ... that is a whole lot more data than I'm used to seeing in
TopMemoryContext. How many stats dump lines are there exactly (from
here to the crash report)? If there are many (like many thousands) that
would explain why TopMemoryContext is so large, but would direct our
attention to what's generating so many. If there are just a hundred or
so, which'd be typical, then we are looking at some kind of leak of
TopMemoryContext data --- though that still doesn't explain the crash.

FWIW, I doubt that the content of the database is the key point here;
you could probably generate a test case with relatively little data,
or maybe a lot of easily-created dummy data. However stripping it down
might require more insight into the nature of the bug than we have at
this point.
