Anyone have input on whether "checking the health of indexes...." is necessary or recommended in a MariaDB environment?
I use MariaDB. Never been an issue. Customers never complained about speed, and no problems with tables. And that's over a period of 10+ years (with MySQL being used prior to MariaDB).
The ProFox archives are stored in MariaDB, and I’ve never even considered reindexing. IMO, that sounds like something is wrong with your t t hardware if you find it necessary to reindex constantly.
