On the following page and in the example ini files installed with MySQL it's suggested that key_buffer_size is an option that affects MyISAM performance.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/server-system-variables.html

But on the following page about tuning MySQL server parameters, it says "When tuning a MySQL server, the two most important variables to configure are key_buffer_size and table_cache", with no mention of its applicability to MyISAM or other types of tables.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/server-parameters.html


Does this option only affect MyISAM performance, or does it also affect performance of operations on InnoDB tables?
