duh, I meant to cut and paste the lock info and sent user info
by being in a panic.
ghiza=# select * from pg_locks;
locktype | database | relation | page | tuple | transactionid | classid | objid | objsubid | transaction | pid
| mode | granted
---------------+----------+----------+------+-------+---------------+---------+-------+----------+-------------+-------+-----------------+---------

As it turns out this app is distributed across 3 or 4 dbs and it was an oracle
instance that was hung. However, I was ill prepared to eval the state of
the pg db. Is there a good place to focus in the docs on how to evaluate
locking issues.
Thanks.
