If you change tables with dynamic size rows (varchar, text or blob
columns), you may want to defragment/reclaim space from the table.
Look at in the manual, it will be useful for you:
     http://www.mysql.com/doc/O/P/OPTIMIZE_TABLE.html
     http://www.mysql.com/doc/U/p/Update_speed.html
     http://www.mysql.com/doc/I/n/Insert_speed.html
