Commit with wait event on advisory lock! - Mailing list pgsql-admin

Hi all,

I have long commits on a production database. To know why this happens I organized a snapshot system on table pg_stat_activity.

When I check the result I have this row in it:

postgres=# select * from public.fdj_ms_slow_stmts where pid = 2285947 \gx

-[ RECORD 1 ]----+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

datname          | some_db

…

Is this possible ?

I am really surprised !
