I would suppose that the number of possible file descriptors
and table locking would prevent MyISAM from scaling well with
the number of tables (given that you have a fairly constant
[number of table and amount of data] per CPU.) InnoDB ought
to fare better. This is just speculation, but I, too, would
be interested in seeing some real-life examples of MySQL running
on high-end machines.
