Hi John,
What kind of engine are you using on your table? MyIsam or InnoDB or are
you using merged tables?
If you query your system variables what is your max_write_lock_count?
If you create a copy of the table: mysql>create table cp1 like
USERS_PER_HOUR; and you try the insert again; is the error gone?
