I'm curious where you started seeing performance issues (number of
messages, users;  hardware platform stats), because it's something I'm
keeping in mind for "things to watch out for" locally.  Particularly in
light of:

where we switched from MySQL (either ISAM or InnoDB) on disk to ramdisk,
and immediately dropped 90%+ of the performance issues we were having.

We also found that MySQL replication was such an I/O hog that it was
better to single-host the SA Bayes DB, keep reasonable backups, and plan
to restore from backup instead of trying for hot or warm failover.
