As of October 6, 2015 this module is retired. I fully recommend using https://github.com/AOEpeople/Aoe_DbRetry for future-compatible Deadlock (and more!) Magento issues.
Thanks!

Disclaimer
I am not claiming this will fix anything or improve the performance of your store. Use at your own risk.
This is not intended to be a long-term solution for stores with systemic issues. This is meant to help solve real-world problems with stores suffering from deadlocks while they work out their own hardware, plugin, customization, other issues.
