I suspect so. Since shared_buffers is 32GB, I suppose the remaining
96GB is consumed by backend processes. By a quite-coarse estimation,
96GB per 3000 clients is 32MB per client. It looks like a bit large
but it depends on workload. We could investigate the memory usage by
the clients but I'm not sure how to examine the memory usage of as
many as 3000 processes on Windows..

You can read a report from PGECons. It is an annual report on a
benchmarking of PostgreSQL. It is not about Windows, but Linux on
128GB box. And not memory usage but performance against the number of
clients. But I expect it informative for you.

For example, with a simple workload made by pgbench, a server is
saturaged with 192 clients or 8000 tps of referenceing workload.
