The core code does nothing with advisory locks. If COMMIT is blocking on one of those, it must be a consequence of user-defined code that is running at pre-commit time. You've given us nothing to go on about what that could be. > By the way I also have commits which are waiting on ClientRead... That, on the other hand, is surely impossible. I think maybe you are misreading the stats display. Typically I'd expect that such a case indicates that the session is idle (awaiting a new command) and the COMMIT is the last thing it did before that. regards, tom lane
