Database Design
	• Select the right column types – No bigger than you need – MySQL provides a ton of column types – Use NOT NULL where it makes sense – Use fixed column sizes if you can • MyISAM tables with fixed rows are faster • Concurrency improvements – Store compressed data when possible See: http://www.mysql.com/doc/S/t/Storage_requirements.html
