The databse that I have has no clients connected to it(other than gstat and maybe ibconsole), but still there is a gap.

That, unfortunately, is hard. Here is a suggestion that might work,
assuming you can reproduce the problem outside a production environment.

1) Get the database in a state where there is a large gap in transaction
numbers.

2) Shut down one client at a time, doing a gstat -h after each shutdown.

3) When the oldest active value moves, you've found a client that has a
long-lived transaction.

You'll probably have to do this several times - it's possible that every
client has an open snapshot.

Alternately, you can start clients slowly and watch for the gap to start
growing.
