Does MySQL require periodic reindexing for indexes on columns whose
value permanently increases (while the oldest entries are expired)?

Another database suffers from the so-called "creeping index syndrome",
which results in ever-growing indexes in such cases (some pages in the
index can never be reused because they correspond to expired values
which will never again be present in the corresponding column).
