Hi everybody,

I noticed (after checking the files in utils/kamctl/mysql) that kamailio uses the MyISAM storage engine for its database tables in mysql, is there some particular reason for this? Isn't the read/write concurency that InnoDB provides desirable?

you can change that if you prefer innodb, nothing has to be changed in kamailio. Probably the MyISAM is still the safest for old installations. The best would be to make it configurable, but now is generated from the xml file specifying table structures.

Is there an option to set default storage engine per database (or mysql server)? Maybe we should skip it in table definition and let it be the default one in the database server.

And on a side note, enabling 'low_priority_updates' (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/server-options.html#option_mysqld_low-priority-updates) that prioritizes reads over writes in my mysql config can lead to any potential issues with kamailio? Anybody tested this before?

I haven't played with this myself, but it should not really affect kamailio, each own process uses its connection and does serial queries.

Cheers,
Daniel
