ci_sessions is marked as crashed and should be repaired

MyISAM typically does faster INSERTs because it doesn't lock the table in that case, but that's also possibly the reason for these crashes. Also, fulltext search has been MyISAM's biggest selling point since forever, InnoDB only got it recently.

In general MyISAM is better for logging-type stuff where you just insert lots and lots of data that you rarely modify, while InnoDB is for everything else, especially operational data like sessions.

Thanks for the info. Do you think MyISAM is still the right choice if all you're doing is inserts and deletes? (no modifications)
