I think at least the "unable to fetch updated version of tuple" ERRORs are likely to be an unrelated 9.3+ BUG that I've recently reported. Alvaro has a patch. C.f. 20131124000203.ga4...@alap2.anarazel.de Even the "deadlock detected" errors might be a fkey-locking issue. Bug #8434, but that's really hard to know without more details.
