I've done something like this and opted to use advisory locks instead of row locks thinking that I'd increase performance by avoiding an actual lock.

I'm curious to hear what the team thinks the pros/cons of a row vs advisory lock are and if there really are any performance implications. I'm also curious what they do with job/task records once they're complete (e.g., do they leave them in that table? Is there some table where they get archived? Do they just get deleted?)
