Thank you for looking at this!

I'm also bothered by errors "no empty local buffer available" produced
(on master, but not on REL_12_STABLE) when inserting larger tuples:
INSERT INTO t SELECT '' FROM generate_series(1, 500) g;
INSERT INTO t SELECT
 (SELECT string_agg('text' || g, ' ') FROM generate_series(1, 700) g)
 FROM generate_series(1, 30);

Are those errors expected?

Best regards,
Alexander
