Community Auth Database Engine
#1

I'm considering using Community Auth for a new project. As I'm browsing through the source, I noticed that some database tables use MyISAM as the engine, and others use InnoDB. Is this on purpose? Why wouldn't it be the same?

You could probably use InnoDB for everything, but the idea of some usage of MyISAM is that in theory MyISAM is faster when you don't need the more advanced features of InnoDB. Search the internet for:

"MyISAM vs InnoDB"

"When is MyISAM better than InnoDB"

"When is InnoDB better than MyISAM"

I'm not a database guru, so I could be persuaded to change these in the repo if somebody that is truly qualified told me I was doing it wrong.
