Do you suspect or that's where the script output ends?
Even between 2nd and 3rd memory_get_usage() call your script's memory
usage increased rapidly - first the sql query was created, then it was
assigned to $data. So for a moment the file was in memory twice.
Something similar is with pg_query() - the file was at a moment in $data
string, then it is copied somewhere in the php_pg module and the memory
usage tripples.
As a solution you might want to implement (or look for implementation
of) mysql's load_file() function.
