While the rows have been already physically deleted, optimizing the tables will reclaim (in some cases) a lot of space and clean up the internal purging log (in some cases, fixing slowdowns. eg. dbstore2* T189596#4160236 ).
While this is not high priority, it would be nice to keep track of the optimized databases/hosts to not work twice.
