 * As above, I tried running the optimization for the first time and that’s what
   I got on most of the tables; in the end, there was no saving at all. Why is that
   so?

 * Hey Alexious,

 * Your tables are optimized but using a different approach.
 * BTW:
    Optimizing database tables doesn’t mean ‘making them smaller’; it’s making
   them faster instead by reorganizing the data.

 * Thanks for your feedback!
