It is gdscode 335544364 req_sync Request synchronization error. From hazy
recollection, it occurs when the application requests a requery for a
select statement while the statement is still fetching or calls rollback or
commit on a transaction that has requests in this state.

If so (no guarantees!!) then you could put the request in a retry loop that
catches this exception. If the queries are outside your control, e.g. a
user can request a SELECT * on a table with 5 million rows, you should
probably limit the number of retries before denying the request
absolutely. There isn't currently a way to stop a runaway query.
