The real query has a bunch of function calls, including aggregates and custom
plpgsql functions. I reduced the whole thing to the above.

ts=# explain analyze SELECT fn() FROM generate_series(1,999);
! 71692 kB max resident size

ts=# explain analyze SELECT fn() FROM generate_series(1,9999);
! 332852 kB max resident size

Which doesn't seem to leak if I "SELECT 1 INTO rec" instead of "SELECT relpages
INTO rec".

The real query has:
| Append (cost=44.54..192946.35 rows=79 width=741)

That's a query over a 2 day period (midnight to midnight+2), so it's not hard
for me to believe it sometimes exceeds 100k cost units (jit_inline_above_cost),
depending on where we are in that interval, and on planner statistics. It
might've been different when I first reported the problem, too.

I'm not sure what you mean about expensive enough to be jited ?
I think our custom functions don't have a COST set.

explain analyze is showing:

JIT:
Functions: 201
