## CLI: Vacuum Command

New commands `admin vacuum-analyze` to assist in managing your Postgres database. When directed by support, performing a manual [Postgres Vacuum](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-vacuum.html) can help with performance issues. Generally a manual vacuum is not required.

The commands require `system` auth.

```bash
$ bindplane admin vacuum-analyze

? WARNING: This command will significantly degrade BindPlane's performance while it runs. Are you sure you want to continue? (y/n) y
database vacuumed.
```
