I've recently switched from GEMINI to INNODB, to be able to get
continued support and upgrades of MySQL.

I'm running into to some major performance issues. The section in the
MySQL manual is not very thorough on optimizing INNODB.

I'm getting two problems, either all my queries pile up, or a 'show
processlist' shows 50 sleeping processes that should be hard at work,
either way everything comes to a crawl.

The database server is a dedicated 2CPU pIII 2.6Ghz, 2GB RAM, with a 14
hardrive (10k) Raid5 array.

Pretty much every query uses indexed fields, so things should be fast, I
get the impression that there is a locking issue going on, but as I
understood it, INNDOB is supposed to do row level locking? I haven't had
this problem with GEMINI in the past.

Can anyone give me some improvement suggestions?
