Re: autovacuum ignore tables

["Sriram Dandapani" <sdandapani(at)counterpane(dot)com>]

I see RowExclusiveLocks for all the jdbc inserts

Real question is: Why do the INSERTS go into wait state as soon as the
lock table statement is issued on the parent?

Well, it's waiting for something.  Try looking in pg_locks to see which
transaction is blocking it.
