Hello List,

I have this table that has a single row in it:

CREATE TABLE `quicktable` (
  `x` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `quick_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  PRIMARY KEY  (`x`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=2 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1

select * from quicktable;
+---+----------+
| x | quick_id |
+---+----------+
| 1 |        0 |
+---+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

I have a large number of connections executing these queries:

BEGIN:
SELECT quick_id FROM quicktable FOR UPDATE;
COMMIT;

This
works well until I hit a large number of concurrent connections (around
200), when I start getting deadlocks. Despite the fact, that I'm only
selecting a single table. Here is the deadlock section from SHOW INNODB
STATUS;

TOO DEEP OR LONG SEARCH IN THE LOCK TABLE WAITS-FOR GRAPH
*** WE ROLL BACK TRANSACTION (2)


Can
anyone explain whats going on? Is there a limit for the number of
concurrent transactions, before looking at the lock graph becomes too
expensive?  Is that documented somewhere?

Thanks,

William Newton
