This indicates that you aren't actually releasing all the lwlocks. You can
inspect
static int num_held_lwlocks = 0;
static LWLockHandle held_lwlocks[MAX_SIMUL_LWLOCKS];
in a debugger to see which locks you didn't release.

You're currently starting multiple threads with questions a week. Could you at
least keep them in one thread?
