Also the app doesn't have long running transactions, and the locks shows even if I just to a SELECT, to reproduce the problem don't have to do an "BEGIN ... COMMIT/ROLLBACK". I found the problem is in the way I connect the app to the database, when I set the Transaction Isolation Level to ReadCommitted, the locking problem appears, when I use the default connection method, the locks doesn't appear when I do "select * from pg_locks". This solves the locking problem, but what happens to transactions? the app is still working in transaction mode, or just applying changes after every Insert/Update/Delete?. -- Leonardo M.
