The above statement is utterly false, so your trace seems to indicate
something broken.  Are you sure these were the only reads of pg_clog
files?  Can you extend the tracing to determine which page of the file
got read?  I am wondering if your (unspecified) test load was managing
to touch more pages of the clog than there is room for in shared memory.
