Without InnoDB, there's a chance that some of those records will go out of sync. I hate db corruption. Also, InnoDB can be faster than MyISAM if configured and used probably. Primary key lookups are lightning fast with InnoDB, and it handles concurrent access better. @Kay, Tim: You're right that the speed of Nairalist has nothing to do with Python. Python just made it possible for a rusty coder like me to deliver the site in record time. @Deji: behind the scenes, a lot happens when you post.
