I validated the absence of serious memory leaks by running the following multiple times:
explain analyse SELECT _prom_ext.push_rec(ROW(now(), x)::_prom_ext.backend_telemetry_rec) FROM generate_series(1, 200000) x;
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM _prom_ext.pop_recs();
After executing the first line, the RAM consumption always jumped by about 15 MB and stayed, then reliably returned to its original reading at the end of the test.
CALL run_job(:job_id);
doesn't seem to be using the actual maintenance job infrastructure. In order to prove the buffer works inside an actual job worker I've repeated the integration test on a regular instance.
Closing in favor of https://github.com/timescale/promscale_extension/pull/555
