Hi, MySQL tables of OpenSer created by the script are "MyISAM". Is there any
reason for that instead of using InnoDB?

As I know:

MyISAM:
- Is faster reading and writting (except writting various entries to same
table since it blocks the entire table).
- No transactions or rollbacks.
- Small disc space requeriments.

InnoDB:
- Transactions, rollbacks, restrictions in foreing keys.
- Faster writting various entries in same table (entry lock instead of table
lock).
- More disc space and RAM requeriments.


Yes, it can be obvious that for OpenSer the engine MyISAM can be a good choice
but I would like to know if there is more data for this choice.

Regards.

Depending on how much data you have, you should also look at mysql Cluster. Since it is an in memory database, it will be super fast.

I have used SER with Mysql Cluster and it works well.
