I'm working on a C++ application that uses a MySQL database to keep track of poker hands and statistics. The table that keeps track of individual hands will have millions of hands in it. I will need to perform simple operations like SUM periodically to generate certain statistics on all of the hands in the database. I'm wondering if I should go with InnoDB or MyISAM for this database? The database will be run on an average PC (2-4 GB RAM) and the operation needs to be done as quickly as possible.

Thanks,
David
