I was wondering what others are thinking with respect to transaction table type (BDB, Innobase, or Gemini) choices. It seems to me that if you want transaction support in MySQL, then you must pick one of the available transaction table types. And I would also assume that row level locking would be a better choice than page level locking. So which one, Innobase or Gemini? If you are doing typical finacial transactions, then either would be a reasonable choice, but I wonder which one would offer better backup/recovery options, etc. I was hoping for some guidance. Any takers?
