The most obvious idea is a lock with a statement that takes an ACCESS EXCLUSIVE lock, like TRUNCATE or ALTER TABLE. But there are other possibilities, like network problems or a problem inside your application. To narrow that down, set "log_min_duration_statement" and possibly activate "auto_explain", so that you can verify if the long delay is due to long processing time inside the database.
