Sorry I forgot to mention - in the "normal" case, each of those tables will
have a few hundred thousand records, and in the worst case (the tables store
info on up to 2000 endpoints) it can be around 5 million.

Also, the partitioning is not final yet (we might move it to 6 hours / 12
hours per partition) - which is why I need to run the load test :)

How many locks per table/index does PG require? Even with my current state
(<50 tables, < 250 (tables + indexes)) is it reasonable to expect 2000 locks
to run out?
