Re: SELECT blocks UPDATE

Further observation: Now I managed to get rid of the blocking. I am not sure
if you are familiar with the NHibernate ORM, but it has a concept of a
stateful and stateless sessions. Session holds a connection to the database
and transaction is created on a particular session. In this case, 'begin
transaction' and the SELECT statement was executed in the context of the
stateful session, while the UPDATE was executed on a stateless session. I am
not sure how this situation manifests on Postgres but since the 'blocked'
and 'blocking' lock apparently belong to the same transaction, it does not
look like it should matter, except it does.
