Hi Shoaib
Thanks for the response.
Sorry - I forgot to mention that I am using PostgreSQL 8.3.9 on Ubuntu 9.04.
And just to be clear - I am not suggesting that there is a bug in Postgresql :-)
I am just trying to clarify what it does and doesn't do.
Regards, Tony

I guess what I would really like to know is - is it possible that autovacuum will request a AccessExclusiveLock and if yes, under what circumstances?
IIRC, there was a similar bug in pre 8.3. Which version are you using?
