All,

While running a Select query we get the below error:

ERROR: out of memory
DETAIL: Failed on request of size 192.

Postgres Conf details:
shared_buffers = 256000
work_mem =150000
max_stack_depth = 16384
max_fsm_pages = 400000
version: 8.1.3

We are using 8gb of Primary memory for the server which is used as a
dedicated database machine.

The data log shows the below message after getting the Out of memory error.
Also attached the explain for the query. Can someone let us know , if have
some worng parameter setup or any solution to the problem?

Regards,
Nimesh.
