Yes, I have, it's one of the first things I usually do/did in a new 5.0/1 setup, and it works out OK, allthough there are major improvements in 5.5 for InnoDB, so an upgrade from 5.0/1 to 5.5 may result in a lot less resource usage. It's just a setting, can be set globally or in a session: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/server- options.html#option_mysqld_default-storage-engine -- Rik Wasmus -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org
