I'm optimizing because I thought I should. I'll be updating my index somewhere between every 15 minutes, and every 2 hours. That means between 12 and 96 updates per day. That seems like a lot of index files (and it scared me a little), so that's my second reason for wanting to optimize nightly.
I haven't benchmarked the performance hit for not optimizing. That'll be my next step. If the hit isn't too bad, I'll look into optimizing less frequently (weekly, ...). Thanks Otis!
