Hi
Here is some more info.
>What version of postgres ? What OS/version ?
psql (14.1, server 12.6 (Ubuntu 12.6-0ubuntu0.20.04.1))

Yes but nothing in the logs that I could find.
>Or session logs for the slow query ?

Added log_lock_waits but could not anything new in the logs
SHOW deadlock_timeout ;

In the logs I only things like this
