Masahiko Sawada 5c1ed0a516 Reduce memory block size for decoded tuple storage to 8kB. 
Commit a4ccc1cef introduced the Generation Context and modified the
logical decoding process to use a Generation Context with a fixed
block size of 8MB for storing tuple data decoded during logical
decoding (i.e., rb->tup_context). Several reports have indicated that
the logical decoding process can be terminated due to
out-of-memory (OOM) situations caused by excessive memory usage in
rb->tup_context.

This issue can occur when decoding a workload involving several
concurrent transactions, including a long-running transaction that
modifies tuples. By design, the Generation Context does not free a
memory block until all chunks within that block are
released. Consequently, if tuples modified by the long-running
transaction are stored across multiple memory blocks, these blocks
remain allocated until the long-running transaction completes, leading
to substantial memory fragmentation. The memory usage during logical
decoding, tracked by rb->size, does not account for memory
fragmentation, resulting in potentially much higher memory consumption
than the value of the logical_decoding_work_mem parameter.

Various improvement strategies were discussed in the relevant
thread. This change reduces the block size of the Generation Context
used in rb->tup_context from 8MB to 8kB. This modification
significantly decreases the likelihood of substantial memory
fragmentation occurring and is relatively straightforward to
backport. Performance testing across multiple platforms has confirmed
that this change will not introduce any performance degradation that
would impact actual operation.

Backport to all supported branches.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
