http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/explicit-locking.html says:
"""
ACCESS SHARE
Conflicts with the ACCESS EXCLUSIVE lock mode only.
The SELECT command acquires a lock of this mode on referenced
tables. In general, any query that only reads a table and does not
modify it will acquire this lock mode.
"""
in other words, everything is ok, AccessShareLock doesn't block
anything but with anyone trying to change the structure of the table
(ALTER, DROP) and with commands TRUNCATE, REINDEX, CLUSTER, and VACUUM
FULL, and every select take it
