In pgAdmin Server Status, it is showing "RELEASE_EXEC_SVP_XXXXXX" (XXXXXX data are varied) as its query and it's locks also contain a lot of these "RELEASE_EXEC_SVP_XXXXXX" entries. What do these mean? These commonly cause lock blocking problems because these sessions sometimes lock other rows but the session status is always "Idle in transaction". I do not know why there are sessions like these. I have reviewed our system and do not see any possibility of transactions getting started that are not rollbacked or committed and just stay idle so this must be something internal to postgresql.

What is the application platform? I know there are some APIs/packages in languages viz python which would start an implicit transaction even when you fire a select statement. What is the kind of lock and what is their granted status?
What is the isolation level that you use in application?
