Thanks. I just saw the benchmark that InnoDB has on their site: http://www.innodb.com/bench.html
and I was fairly surprised by the speed difference between InnoDB and MyISAM when it comes to concurrent inserts/selects. I thought the new feature of MyISAM tables being able to do simultaneous inserts/selects would be faster than this benchmark claims. Does replication hurt MyISAM performance in the same way? If I'm running a master that takes all the inserts and one or more slaves to take all the select queries, would it be better implemented in MyISAM or InnoDB? I don't need the transaction ability of InnoDB, but if concurrent replication affects MyISAM performance in the same way as concurrent insert/select ops, it makes me wonder which table type I should use on my high insert activity tables. My assumption was MyISAM, but I'm not so sure now...
