We have a table containing just one column that we use for
unique IDs:

CREATE TABLE `id_sequence` (
 `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
 PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM
Watching 'SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST' and reading the slow query
log shows the occasional backlog of locks. Has anyone found
significant speed increases or better concurrency by
switching over to InnoDB for such a table?

I've found that MS Access will produce this behaviour ( among others ) when you get a number of clients connected to MyISAM tables. Converting to InnoDB solves it every time.
