Re: Do any of you have a policy on rebuilding indexes?

Hello Mark,

Lots of good info here confirming my suspicions (that there won't be much
use in rebuilding indexes). Even the fragmentation issues probably aren't
what they used to be with SSD's in place now. No hardware to move to get to
a different place on the platter.

First: Not everybody has SSDs.

Second: Many short reads impose more overall overhead than one long. Again: How much this is relevant in practice, is yet to be discovered.

:wq! PoC
