 * I would like to optimize by database occasional with the same features of Scheduled
   Database Maintenance, but I do not want it to run unattended every week. Would
   you consider add in a button so we can run it manually from time to time?

 * Hello [@kimball31](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kimball31/) ,
 * We have reviewed the feature request and for now, we have decided that such an
   option would not be implemented.
 * By default, the database maintenance is executed through a cron event scheduled
   to be performed every week. Once the event is performed it gets automatically
   scheduled to be executed in 7 days.
 * If you would prefer to control the execution this can easily be done through 
   [WP-Cli](https://www.siteground.com/tutorials/wordpress/wp-cli/)
 * You can enlist the scheduled cron events with this command:
    **wp cron event 
   list**
 * If you want to execute the cron event on demand you can execute this command:
   **
   wp cron event run siteground_optimizer_database_optimization_cron** This action
   will run the event and basically allow you the control that you require.
 * Best regards,
    Georgi Ganchev
