The major advantage, or usage, of converting the tables to InnoDB is for when external applications attempt to access the tables at the same time as the server executables are active. Otherwise, because the executables are non-threaded and all commands are executed linearly, there's not much reason to convert them to InnoDB by default since our executables don't require them to be so (there's not really any instances where table-level locking interferes with the flow of the executables, without external applications accessing the data.) It's recommended for when a server is accessing the logs frequently (control panels, custom administration searches etc.) but not much benefit for the executables alone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong but, wouldn't it be better to use some keys to automate the process of deletion of data e.g. in delete_char_sql? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
