sorry..
The are solaris mutex locks used by the postgresql process.
What its saying is that there are holds/waits in trying to get locks
which are locked at Solaris user library levels called from the
postgresql functions:
For example both the following functions are hitting on the same mutex
lock 0x10059e280 in Solaris Library call:
postgres`AllocSetDelete+0x98
postgres`AllocSetAlloc+0x1c4
I need to enable the DTrace probes on my builds

So follow that up --- try to determine which lock is being contended

with -DLWLOCK_STATS, but probably DTrace would be a better tool.
Using plockstat -A -s 5 -p $pid
I don't know what that is, but it doesn't appear to have anything to do
with Postgres LWLocks or spinlocks, which are the locks I was thinking of.
Try asking Robert Lor about this --- IIRC he had some dtrace probes to
work with our locks.
