If we just have one question, we can choose the best default storage
engine for him. With only one storage engine active, it's much easier
to allocate memory.

This is a good setup for someone that just wants to install and run
things. Fine tuning can be done by modifying my.cnf when the users
knows more and the initial tests has shown that MySQL is up to the task...
