I have developer with pg 9.3.5, which is reporing something really strange. He runs importer, which does, in single transaction: begin; select * from table where pkey = <value> limit 1 for update; update table set ... where pkey = <the same_value>; commit; and two backends running the same transaction deadlock. I checked for duplicated rows with the same pkey value - none are there. And frankly - I'm out of ideas. What could be wrong in such case?
So process 66017 and 66014 are blocking each because they are running the exact same queries. The interesting part is the process with the lower pid is starting later then the none with the higher pid.
So what exactly is 'importer' and what does it do? Also what is this (59303)?
