The name pretty much says it all. Right now I’m using Squirrel – it crashes frequently and suffers from memory problems (I’ve tried increasing the heap size). I don’t need anything particularly fancy or full-featured – just something that won’t take up 2.4 GB of RAM to store a 1.5 million line, 8 column result set.

Use PgAdmin.
However – I don’t think you’ll find much that won’t use a large amount of memory when you have a result set with 1.5 million rows…
PgAdmin has the ability to limit automatically the number of rows returned – so you can get an overview, but not sit for an hour waiting for your results to turn up. If you write a query to return that many rows though, than you are going to have problems.
(You can also look at the
limitSQL command, to restrict how many results you get back)
