Hi,
In our opinion, you can opt any or all of these:
a) Build indexes; or rebuild indexes with REPAIR TABLE
b) Take Periodic backup(mysqldump) based on the importance of the data.
Clear the current table on specific condition.
c) If clearing the table affects the transactions that depends on past data,
then well and good compress the table.[only for myisam]
shell> myisampack <tablename>.MYI
shell>myisamchk -rq <tablename>.MYI
Thanks
