OptimizeDB Module Author: Sergey Pavlenko DESCRIPTION ----------- One of the known issues of the Drupal sites is table cache_form overgrowth (see issue https://drupal.org/node/1506196). This table stores filled forms in cache_form table but it doesn’t get cleared while running cron tasks, so size of this table can be much more bigger than other tables in database, which can cause lack of disc space on the hosting server "OptimizeDB" module clears outdated records in cache_form table during cron task run in safe mode. You could clean cache_form table from admin area too "OptimizeDB" module is also able to optimize selected database tables and display their sizes on demand. Automatic optimizing of tables during cron tasks is not available because it may cause problems with the database and crash tables. However, you can configure the notification about need of table optimization. If your server often has problems with the database server, make a backup of the database before optimization run. The danger of losing data using module for optimization is the same as while using PHPMyAdmin. "OptimizeDB" module provides such features: 1. Ability to clean cache_form an administrative page or do it by cron. 2. Ability to optimize all database’s tables and display its sizes. 3. Configuration of notification about necessity to perform maintenance tasks. 4. Perform, check and repair operation with tables. 5. Prevent crashing tables when performing all maintained actions.
