I can confirm Wanda's statement. We are actively analyzing this along with expiration time required to expire SystemState objects. It appears to us (on v6.2.2 server) that clients running 6.2.1 or later are not a problem whereas earlier clients can be a huge problem, not in terms of occupancy so much as how long it is taking TSM to expire them.
