Just last week I reindexed a 70+ million row table and shaved about
50% of the bloated index pages on a two integer column index.  I
believe it hadn't been reindexed in about 6 months.

I regularly have to re-index for performance purposes.  My data lives
on most tables for about 6 months and is then deleted, or lives
forever and is updated frequently.

I've commented about this many times before.
