DELAYED should always work, assuming you have allocated large enough buffers.
You did read the optimization documentation, right?

How many inserts per second do you have?

Even unoptimized, on a 1GHz Mac (I do a lot of findU testing on my Powerbook), I
can handle the 30-40 inserts/second of findU's parser (without DELAYED) and run
any of the findU scripts, as well as handling all the normal GUI load. Unless
you have hundreds of inserts a second or are running on a PS-2, there is
something wrong with the way you have set things up...
