Dec 2, 2015 at 14:43 comment added Jason Starr That example I suggested does not work: the domain has two irreducible components, and each of the two small resolutions "flattens" only one of the two irreducible components.
Dec 2, 2015 at 12:08 comment added Jason Starr I do not know if this works, but how about the restriction over the determinantal locus in the target $\text{Zero}(det) \subset \text{Mat}_{2\times 2}$ of the matrix multiplication morphism $\text{Mat}_{2\times 2} \times \text{Mat}_{2\times 2} \to \text{Mat}_{2\times 2}$?
Dec 2, 2015 at 3:06 comment added Jonathan Wise I'm most interested in the finitely presented case, but with non-proper support.
Dec 1, 2015 at 15:01 comment added Jason Starr There is an appropriate Quot space that is proper over $S$ whenever the support of $M$ is proper over $S$ and $M$ is locally finitely presented. So counterexamples should have the support of $M$ not proper (or, in the non-Noetherian setting, $M$ not locally finitely presented).
