Description

## What did you do?

- I started writing some simple queries and pressed tab to autocomplete few of the key words like "Select" etc.
- Then it started showing that it is fetching this data "fetching database tables, functions, search path..." but it stays there and doesn't move forward.

## What did you expect to happen?

- I expected to see the keywords autofill

## What actually happened?

- The app got stuck.

## What software versions are you using?

Postico version: 1.5.10

macOS version:
10.14.6

PostgreSQL version:
9.6.11

I checked with my colleague and it is happening with them also. It could also be some setting with my DB but I am unable to find that with my DB admin. Could you please help?

Research direction

Reproduce the autocomplete hang in Postico 1.5.10 on macOS 10.14.6 against PostgreSQL 9.6.11, focusing on the "fetching database tables, functions, search path..." state. Done means pressing Tab advances from metadata fetching and completes keywords such as "Select".
