On table

create table MyTableName (
  id integer not null primary key,
  seqYear char(4),
  seqCount integer,
  ...)

Where id is primary key and (seqYear, seqCount) is a unique index.
Table facts: about 40 fields, 1 million records.

When I issue a

select max(id) from MyTableName


Postgres 9.2.7 is scaling a AccessExclusiveLock and causing large delays.

Is that expected? Is there a way to avoid the AccessExclusiveLock?

Thanks,

Edson
