There is no foreign keys, but there is one session who did transactions
to tables with savepoints, one savepoints/per sql in same transaction. But
sessions with query "SELECT “ do not use savepoints , just with a lot of
sessions running same query and hang on MultiXact suddenly.  even only one
session doing DML with savepoints , and all other queries sessions can see
this kind of "MultiXact" waiting ,right?
