title: Why remove django DATABASE_OPTIONS's "init_command set engine=INNODB" after table creation?
body: <p>Docs on <a href="https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/ref/databases/#creating-your-tables" rel="nofollow noreferrer">creating your database tables</a> says:</p>
  
  <p>Another option is to use the init_command option for MySQLdb prior to creating your tables:</p>
  
  <pre><code>DATABASE_OPTIONS = {
     "init_command": "SET storage_engine=INNODB",
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>This sets the default storage engine upon connecting to the database.
    After your tables have been created, you should remove this option as
    it adds a query that is only needed during table creation to each
    database connection.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Does anyone know why is it necessary to remove this option after table creation?</p>
