I think from memory at eBay we used BTREE for at least one index. The use case was:
PK insert/update of data, 20k record of cached data per user. Range delete of stale data by last_updated_date (e.g. older then 20 mins) Given the volume of data, like 400,000 rows per memory table per server, the lock time on the range query was still like death to performance but better then hash. Of course this is an extreme case, how many use memory engine for such high volume of transactions.
