Hm. Is there a chance that your application uses cursors?
Could you send the output of:
SELECT oid::regclass, txid_current(), relfrozenxid, age(relfrozenxid)
FROM pg_class
WHERE oid = 'your relation'::regclass;
My theory is that there's a page that needs to be frozen, but a pin on
the page exists, preventing the cleanup lock from being acquired. Or
rather delaying it long enough that little progress is made.
