I think the moderate setting of max_connection is 100 to 200 or 300 on
a 128GB box. Depending on workload but it seems that you need to
reduce it to the same range. 1000 might be possible for super-light
weight workload but it is almost definite that 10000 don't fit 128GB
memory, or on CPUs with 16-32 cores.

I'm sure the clients are executing queries with quite low
frequency. Maybe you want to use connection pooler such like Pgpool-II
or pgbouncer, yandex/odyssey if the clients need to maintain their
connections to the server for a long time.
