With version 2.9 WordPress conducts its own routine to optimize the database. Previously it was done by either Plugins or via SQL access. From the next version this function is implemented in the core ...

wprdb1

... which you can activate with the help of a constant; stored in wp-config.php, you have access to the script.

define('WP_ALLOW_REPAIR', true);

Call the script from the outside at the following address ...
http://example.com/wp-admin/maint/repair.php

... where you either repair the database or run the optimization. Technically, there is no magic behind this work, but the familiar SQL statements ANALYZE TABLE, REPAIR TABLE and OPTIMIZE TABLE.

wprdb

I guess that will start a debate, why with the constant and why from the outside, etc. - leave your comment here. Alternatively, anyone can contribute to WordPress and discuss directly with the developers or enter changes directly to the code.
