会释放索引空间，但不释放表空间。大量delete后，建议使用OPTIMIZE TABLE 进行表空间整理，不单单可以释放表空间，也可以提交索引空间利用率
mysql delete 会释放索引空间么
一，原始数据
mysql> select count(*) as total from ad_visit_history;
+---------+
| total |
+---------+
| 1187096 | //总共有118万多条数据
+---------+
1 row in set (0.04 sec)
2，存放在硬盘中的表文件大小
[root@BlackGhost test1]# ls |grep visit |xargs -i du {}
382020 ad_visit_history.MYD //数据文件占了380M
127116 ad_visit_history.MYI //索引文件占了127M
12 ad_visit_history.frm //结构文件占了12K
3，查看一下索引信息
mysql> show index from ad_visit_history from test1; //查看一下该表的索引信息
