3.1.1 hint for “Run Clean-up” - how frequent?

So in yesterdays 3.1.1 update release notes there’s a handy hint which says:

  • Some users have reported slow search speeds on Engine OS devices when searching for tracks. While large track counts on a drive can worsen the search speed, some users have found that running a Library Optimization on Engine DJ improves the search speed. To do this, connect the drive to a computer, open Engine DJ, click the gear icon, go to the library tab, and click the “Run Cleanup” button under system.

Is this something we need to do once only, or every week / month ? (Assuming we’re adding new music tracks on a regular basis )

Guess it will be different for everyone and their work flow.

I have an external HD with +1TB of music on it, I put new music on it weekly and run a Clean Up right after, then I back up my library before exiting. No issues, no crashes.
