It's in the man pages, but you need to get e2fsprogs 1.29 or later.
(And you really want to get e2fsprogs 1.30-WIP-0930):
-D Optimize directories in filesystem. This option
causes e2fsck to try to optimize all directories,
pressing directories for smaller directories, or
for filesystems using traditional linear directories.
And you only need to run the command once, as long as you use kernels
that understand directory indexing when the filesystem is mounted
read/write.
