ES 2.2 How often do you recommend ES optimisation is run

[Automotive101]

Optimization required = Yes
Optimize now

but then says
Optimize Elasticsearch index
Are you sure you want to optimize your Elasticsearch index? This will delete the existing index and create a new one in its place.

be useful to know what the criteria is to trigger the need to optimise

thanks

If optimization is required it means the mapping types in Elasticsearch don't match what XF expects. It's not a situation you should run into too regularly, outside of maybe installing/uninstalling add-ons which add or change searchable content.
