That's a borderline-reckless thing to say around here.

Not using InnoDB is one thing -- and good luck with that when you've
got lots of users, lots of comments, and some forums -- but actually
removing the option at the server strikes me as more than a little
foolish.
 
If one is not using the feature, why bother keeping in memory?

How about this for size:

16,000 nodes
124,000 comments
26,000 users
650,000 page views a day (peak day over 930,000)
All running on a single box: dual core Opteron and 2GB of RAM.

Yes, all MyISAM!

Is that enough?
