Without more information to provide at this time, does the following seem
"unusual"?

INFO: free space map: 252 relations, 411494 pages stored; 738640 total pages needed
DETAIL: Allocated FSM size: 2000 relations + 400000 pages = 2463 kB shared memory.

I know there are alot of factors involved in the above, which I'm looking
into, but when I first saw the above, I just about had a heartattack, only
because i've never seen such high #s for total pages needed ...

... Is this something that others are seeing as relatively normal?
