"Please note that the values computed by this action are not precise, 
and should be used as a guideline only. Great effort was made to 
estimate the correct size of a table, but in the end it is only an 
estimate. The correct index size is even more of a guess than the 
correct table size, but both should give a rough idea of how bloated 
things are."
