I don't know about the downvotes, but using anything non-default in MySQL is dangerous because the devs don't test well enough. I've had enough troubles just with transactions to never consider MySQL for a serious project ever again.

> I've had enough troubles just with transactions What kind of troubles? It's a serious question; I work with InnoDB transactions on a daily basis, and if I can find more real issues, I can usually get them resolved (or explain the behavior). MySQL is a very powerful and performant DB (and, contrary to seeming popular opinion, 100% production ready), but it's not always obvious why things work the way they do.
