+   Another useful tool for monitoring database activity is the
+   <code class="structname">pg_locks</code> system table.  It allows the
+   database administrator to view information about the outstanding
+   locks in the lock manager. For example, this capability can be used
+   to:
+
+   </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
+      View all the locks currently outstanding, all the locks on
+      relations in a particular database, all the locks on a
+      particular relation, or all the locks held by a particular
+      <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> session.
+     </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
+      Determine the relation in the current database with the most
+      ungranted locks (which might be a source of contention among
+      database clients).
+     </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
+      Determine the effect of lock contention on overall database
+      performance, as well as the extent to which contention varies
+      with overall database traffic.
+     </p></li></ul></div><p>
