Are you sure that you have any queries that take more than 10 seconds?
Maybe you need a smaller value of log_min_duration_statement.
Another thought: did you remember to SIGHUP the postmaster (or
equivalently "pg_ctl reload") after changing the config file?
It won't notice your change unless nudged. You can check whether
the change has taken effect by psql'ing in and doing a SHOW on
the variable.
