Let's say you have work_mem=32MB and a query that's expected to use
16MB of memory. In reality, it uses 64MB of memory. So you are saying
this query would get to use all 64MB of memory, right?

But then you run ANALYZE. Now the query is (correctly) expected to use
64MB of memory. Are you saying this query, executed again with better
stats, would only get to use 32MB of memory, and therefore run slower?
