To ensure the WSUS server runs correctly and efficiently, the WSUS database should be re-indexed freqently. It is recommended to do this at least once a month.
/******************************************************************************
This sample T-SQL script performs basic maintenance tasks on SUSDB
1. Identifies indexes that are fragmented and defragments them. For certain
tables, a fill-factor is set in order to improve insert performance.
Based on MSDN sample at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188917.aspx
and tailored for SUSDB requirements
2. Updates potentially out-of-date table statistics.
