Congratulations! “Added sproupt for InnoDB.”What does this mean? Do you build TokuDB indexes over an InnoDB table?

Stephan, that’s not true, for mysql, the correct my.cnf for websites IS /etc/my.cnf .
/usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/my.cnf or /root/my.cnf, have nothing to do with the real configuration of mysql (/etc/my.cnf).

FYI – for those of you using cPanel on your server, the file path to the my.cnf file is /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/my.cnf and not /etc/my.cnf

took me a long time to figure that out (and I’m posting this here in case I ever have to refer to it again too!)

You wouldn’t likely see a big difference with changing the table type. You would be better off changing the buffer size and what not for MyISAM

Ok, I undestand: MyISAM -> optimize for MyISAM.

But I have problems with performance and just wonder, if I use innoDB, can I have better performance?

I never know than 12all have different versions.
I use ver. 4.80 is that versions you talking about?

Different versions may have slightly different setups. If all the tables are in MyISAM you should optimize for MyISAM on the server. 1-2-All 5.0 will almost be all INNODB

Sorry about the confusion

“1-2-All – Mostly InnoDB – Some MyISAM”

Wait, but in my installation of 12all ALL tables are MyISAM.
I checked the installation script. All tables declared as MyISAM.

So, why you wrote “mostly innoDB”?
Should I convert them to innoDB? Which tables?
