Improve memory management for external sorts.
Introduce a new memory context which stores tuple data, and reset itat the end of each merge pass; this helps avoid memory fragmentationand, consequently, overallocation. Also, for the final merge patch,eliminate memory context chunk header overhead entirely by allocatingall of the memory used for buffering tuples during the merge in asingle chunk. Since this modestly increases the number of tuples wecan store, grow the memtuples array a bit so that we're less likely torun short of slots there.Peter Geoghegan.
