Perhaps have a separate output listing locks that were found to be with
at least tE - t0 time, with perhaps a backtrace at that END time?

With that we wouldn't miss that info, however incomplete it is and the
user would try running again, perhaps for a longer time, or start
monitoring before the observed workload starts, etc.

Anyway:
