Aktualy I do now some profiling now we want to see the differences
when switching 31-1. We used myISAM since the biggest problem is
speed and immoDB showed to be crash sensitive. We store long time
series data so the system is writing data all the time.
for "writing data all the time" MyISAM is for sure a completly wrong
decision because the performance strength of MyISAM was always on
most-read workloads
MyISAM *always* does a *complete table lock* for writes and don't allow
concurrent writes without locking - that don't scale when you write all
day long and there are table locks all day long
MyISAM should perform very good if inserts are *append only* (no updates
or deletes). In this case MyISAM will not use an exclusive table lock
and concurrent reads will be allowed
