(For those following along, here's the MySQL manual page about deadlocks which I was referring to in the previous comment: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/innodb-deadlocks.html )

This seems to be an issue unique to MySQL, and it can happen with as few as 2 or 3 concurrent users. It has been reported across all stable versions. Strangely, it seems to be a relatively recent issue (i.e. we never heard this with Mahara 1.8 or 1.7, etc), so this suggests it was triggered by something that changed fairly recently. One possible candidate is our switch to the mysqli driver (before that Mahara wasn't doing transactions at all, in mysql).
