The strange thing is that I didn't see anything at the backend. All
connections were idle at that time. If the application was hanging
because of a transaction lock, shouldn't I see this in pg_locks or
pg_stat_activity?

Anyway, I have changed some transactions and re-arranged some of the
code. The application is running for about four days now without a hang,
but I'm not sure if the problem has really gone away.
