InnoDB is better for larger forums, which execute more queries etc.
Although if you're that big, chances are you use MariaDB or an alternative.
Is it possible to change from the default one to MariaDB?
I've not really used MariaDB, I believe the table structures remain as MyISAM or InnoDB but I am not sure. I think it's just a quicker process? I don't even know. I just know it's quicker in some way.
MyBB can be used with, pretty sure HF used it at one point.
