If you know you're not going to have more than 255 records in a lookup table, it'd make perfect sense to have your PK be a TINYINT instead of INT (or any other integer type for that matter)? By default (I guess leftover from Fox thinking), I've always just used INT, but on review it doesn't make sense to store bytes you're not gonna use.
