Why is it that when I delete records from a table in the database, the size
of the table's MYD file does not get smaller. It's still the original size.
Do I have to flush the table to get the accurate size?
Thanks

run optimize table your_table to force mysql to rebuild the table.

OPTIMIZE TABLE is what you want. But doing it after each
