I believe 11 fixes this?

It is not recommended that you create partitions with triggers, either at the time they are needed or even future ones. This can cause contention when even the slightly write load is on that partition set and 1 or more transactions require the creation of a new child table. All following transactions will be put into a wait state until the new table is created.
I would recommend a separate process that pre-creates the tables in enough time before they are needed. The pg_partman tool that I've been working on can do all this for you if you're able to install third-party extensions. As of version 4.0.0, it has full support of all the new features in 11.
