NuSphere added a table type called gemini.

>From nusphere.com:

"Gemini tables provide row-level locking, robust transaction support, and
reliable crash recovery."

It's not included in the free download.

I guess you also pay the easy install (*) and for e-mail/phone support.

(*)     It takes a few minutes to install and configure MySQL, PHP, Apache,
Perl and some other stuff.
