Sorry, I don't understand why one should use BDB instead of InnoDB. You say table scan is slow, COUNT(*) is slow, more space is required... I don't see any advantage!
Transactions support! :) What one could question though is why one would want to use BDB now when we have InnoDB. InnoDB, which like BDB provides MySQL with a transactions capable storage engine, seems to be fast, come with more features, and it's obviously also more widely supported by MySQL AB.
