    Hi I’m considering buying the PRO version, especially when the plugin said my database size went from 45MB to 30MB. But when i check my database from bluehosts Cpanel, it’s still the same 45MB. Note I am using InnoDB, but am curious if that’s the cause here. Thanks.

    Hi,

    I can’t speak for how cPanel does its calculations; WP-Optimize is running SQL queries to ask MySQL to return data on the data length, index length and free space; search for the method get_current_db_size() in https://plugins.svn.www.ads-software.com/wp-optimize/trunk/includes/class-wp-optimizer.php . Possibly, at a guess, cPanel looks at the size of the MySQL files on disk, which after an optimization may have empty space in them from fragmentation, but will then be used for future queries rather than adding new disk space.

    David
