I checked and there were no un-granted locks... but I have a hard time
believing it actually too 257 seconds to get 2 pages (one index, one heap)
back from our SAN.
Try adding EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS). I am wondering if you are
reading through a lot of pages addressing tuples not visible to the
transaction.
explain (analyze,buffers) select min(insert_time) from cnu_stats.page_hits_raw ;

We do run a regular process to remove older rows... I thought we were vacuuming after that process but maybe not.
