You probably shouldn't optimize at all. The default TieredMergePolicy will eventually purge the deleted files' data, which is really what optimize does. So despite its name, most of the time it's not really worth the effort.
Take a look at your Solr admin page, the "overview" link for a core. If the number of deleted docs is a significant percentage of your numDocs (I typically use 20% or so, but YMMV) then optimize might be worthwhile. Otherwise, it's a distraction unless and until you have some evidence that it actually makes a difference.
