I have a similar problem; every time I run vacuum, I get the following error:

FATAL: no response from backend: detected in PQexec

Removing the pg_vlock allows me to run the command again but I still get
the error.

The thing is that I can here the command working (i.e., the disk grinds
for 15-20 seconds even though the database is small).  It seems to me
that the problem is being caused by the vacuum command itself.
