Tom Lane 5bd06e619c Back-patch contrib/vacuumlo's new -l (limit) option into 9.0 and 9.1. ... Since 9.0, removing lots of large objects in a single transaction risks exceeding max_locks_per_transaction, because we merged large object removal into the generic object-drop mechanism, which takes out an exclusive lock on each object to be dropped. This creates a hazard for contrib/vacuumlo, which has historically tried to drop all unreferenced large objects in one transaction. There doesn't seem to be any correctness requirement to do it that way, though; we only need to drop enough large objects per transaction to amortize the commit costs. To prevent a regression from pre-9.0 releases wherein vacuumlo worked just fine, back-patch commits b69f2e3640 and 64c604898e, which break vacuumlo's deletions into multiple transactions with a user-controllable upper limit on the number of objects dropped per transaction.
