1. Yes, obviously I launched that command when the program was blocked.
2. The system release is "SUSE SLES 10 SP4 64 BIT" with kernel 2.6.16.60.=
=20
Maybe it's not the last release but it can justify the blocks ? In other sy=
stems (VMWARE) the same system work fine.
What you suspect ? libpq ? linux release ? hardware ?=20
If you need other informations let me know.=20=20

That means it's not waiting in a kernel call right now. Was the program=20
in the hung state you've observed at the time you ran the command? Its=20
output would only be interesting when it's hung.

Old kernel, maybe? You're running on some kind of enterprise-y distro,=20
so who knows how ancient half the stuff in there is.
