The index is the oid index on pg_class.  Some more info:

*) temp table churn is fairly high.  Several dozen get spawned and
destroted at the start of a replication run, all at once, due to some
dodgy coding via dblink.  During the replication run, the temp table
churn rate drops.

*)  running btreecheck, I see:
cds2=# select bt_index_verify('pg_class_oid_index');
NOTICE:  page 7 of index "pg_class_oid_index" is deleted
NOTICE:  page 10 of index "pg_class_oid_index" is deleted

cds2=# select bt_leftright_verify('pg_class_oid_index');
WARNING:  left link/right link pair don't comport at level 0, block 9,

[repeat infinity until cancel]

which looks like the index is corrupted?  ISTM _bt_moveright is
hanging because it's trying to move from block 9 to block 9 and so
loops forever.
