There's a page with a sample query and links to more info at
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Lock_Monitoring

One other little thing:  when you're running "top", try using "top -c"
instead.  That should show you exactly what all the postmaster backends
are actually doing, which is really handy to sort out issues in this area.
