 * Hey,
 * Your latest version of the plugin has stopped the :optimize database table” option.
   While the same option is working with the older version.
 * Here is the screenshot of option : [https://www.screencast.com/t/FQPNZArZdH](https://www.screencast.com/t/FQPNZArZdH)

 * Hi,
 * I noticed the same thing.
 * I also noticed that the database size is not decreasing on sites that it used
   to after running the Optimization.
 * Would love to understand what has changed.
 * Thanks,
    Daphne

 * [@mayanksdudakiya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mayanksdudakiya/) this
   should now be fixed in the new version.

 * This is a different issue. To answer the question, while optimizing the tables
   will often reduce their size, it might sometimes actually increase it.
    Indeed,
   it is not _compressing_ the tables, but doing something more like defragmenting,
   in order to improve performance, and not size.

 * Best,
    Marc.
