Chris resolving deadlock issue

Chris is resolving a deadlock that occurred while attempting to issue payments earlier in the day for some coins. The system stopped payouts, as designed, until the issue was able to be addressed by a human.
He expects to correct the issue in a few hours and the affected coins will still be paid within the promised time period. Thanks!

We had to make some code changes to solve this one.
The deadlocks are occurring because there are more shares being inserted than there ever were before, and there are more payouts, so the payouts are no longer able to complete before a lock is attempted by the share inserters.

An update to this problem: this is a very complex issue and we can't even lock the tables in access exclusive mode to get around the deadlocks.
We don't have an ETA on the solution right now. We're continuing to work on the issue and will keep people updated. In the meantime, today's release to improve the disconnects is cancelled.
