Let me summarize something. You don’t disagree the cost of maintaining indexes as this blog describes. You are not disagreeing there are “some” costs for innodb either. So there is a flame MyIsam vs. InnoDb left. Which is imho not intended (at least from the author). Btw: Im not working for fromdual, so I don’t give a ***** what they do. If you want to read my homepage just click on my name;)

It is no post MyISAM vs. InnoDB

Moin Bradley, the post is about the increasing cost of maintaining (more) indexes.

Secondary indexes with InnoDB are even more expensive. Think about a UUID-PK and every secondary saved separately to the PK. So I doubt there is no increasing cost using InnoDB. (And only this would counter the essence of the blog.)

I don’t know TokuDB, but as TokuDB is not GPL who cares?
