If your database relies on the InnoDB storage engine, you can enable the "InnoDB Optimizations" option within the Stackhero dashboard to help boost performance.

Similarly, if your database uses the MyISAM storage engine, activating the "MyISAM Optimizations" option can provide performance improvements.

If you are unsure which storage engine your database uses or which optimization option to select, it is generally safe to enable these options by default. You can always fine-tune them later based on your workload or resource usage.
