PG has quite good concurrency behaviour. And "can't access the database"
isn't anything to do with locking - clients should still be able to log in.

We'll need more details:
1. How do you know this is a deadlock? You haven't shown us what's in
pg_locks, but I assume you've identified the problem there.

2. What data are you loading, to what tables?

3. Are there any foreign-keys or triggers we would need to know about?
