Dear Luis,
	After looking at your system configuration, I would recommend
buying more RAM (it's very inexpensive for older systems like yours),
and then allocating much more buffer space for PostgreSQL. It will
have a profound effect on overall performance, although not for this
particular problem where lock contention is an issue.
