Yeah. I had been wondering about long-lived open transactions, but AFAICS
from the code, backends should re-read the config file at the next client
command submission, whether inside a transaction block or not. So the
thing to look for is what might be overriding the config file's value.
In interactive sessions, examining the pg_settings view would be a
promising way to debug that. I suspect though that the OP is guessing
about what's happening inside application-driven sessions, where it would
be hard to do that kind of debugging :-(
