The short version is that using innodb_file_per_table can help optimize disk usage because each InnoDB table has a file for indexes and data. As far as opening tables, you can increase the size of table_cache. Tom — I’ve added the video, so you (and everyone else) can get the full information.

But, I did have one quick question... you mentioned innodb_file_per_table but it was just a line item. I couldn't tell if you were pro or anti (or neither). I've heard different takes on using this. I know it is nice for saving space if you are doing lots of deletes followed by optimizing, but I've also heard that once you get above 200 tables, there is a hit on performance with opening tables. I was hoping you could give your opinion on when to use or not use innodb_file_per_table. Thanks. I was going through your slides and they were obvious just an outline for your talk.
