Hello

What I have noticed is that when I don't use procedure
at all,there's only 2-5 locks in pg_locks,after I
start application which uses stored procedure the
number in pg_locks increase rapidly to steady 75 even
to 130 at certain moments.

Any clue why procedure usage might increase locks so
heavily ?

Sincerely
