I can hardly imagine that the backend started working with 9mb of memory. what did you do that PostgreSQL needed so much memory from the beginning??? are you using the default settings? usually the postmaster does not need more than 3mb at startup (in this scenario).
Setup is completely default - i.e run initdb, and start the server after that.
I am running an embedded sql program to do the test, rather than an sql script
(see enclosed), not sure why/if that would make any difference.
On the cautionary side, note that I am using a beta Linux distribution too.
