#1029: geometric object crashes server with Out Of Memory
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  cousinm  |       Owner:  pramsey      
     Type:  defect   |      Status:  new          
 Priority:  medium   |   Milestone:  PostGIS 1.5.3
Component:  postgis  |     Version:  1.5.X        
 Keywords:           |  
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 The attached object crashes the PostgreSQL server after allocating more
 than 20 Gigabytes of ram (sometimes bringing the server with it), when
 using any GIS function even st_isvalid().

 I don't know if it is valid, it was provided «as is» by a user, and I
 can't run st_isvalid() on it.


 SELECT postgis_full_version();
                                          postgis_full_version
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  POSTGIS="1.5.2" GEOS="3.2.2-CAPI-1.6.2" PROJ="Rel. 4.7.1, 23 September
 2009" LIBXML="2.7.8" USE_STATS
 (1 row)

 The attached script creates a «test» table, and puts this object inside
 it.

 Please tell me if I can provide anything to help on this problem.
