Your question would be more appropriate on mysql list.

However here's some comments from me:
- select count(*) is NOT a suitable query for performance measurement.
Short version: some storage engines cheat, they don't exactly do the
count, only returns the estimate.
- if you read 
http://www.paralleluniverse-inc.com/parallel_universe_5.5-3.1_usage_guide.txt
, you'll see that only certain kinds of queries will benefit from
their tech, and even then you must explicitly set some variables
- for generic use on a single server, I currently use tokudb (on some
server) and mariadb with tokudb engine (on some others). I'm happy
with the results so far
