We have recently deleted a large (700+) number of accounts and mailboxes. It has been decided that defragmenting the store would be useful.
We have tested the procedure on a disaster recovery server. Twice. The two restored stores were about a week apart in date and no drastic changes were made in the meantime. The first defrag completed in around 6 hours and reduced priv.edb from 60GB to 39GB The second defrag completed in around 9 hours and reduced priv.edb from 60GB to 57GB Previous tests of eseutil on other servers have apparently revealed similarly inconsistent results. Does anyone have a good idea about what is going on? If we can recover 21GB it would be well worth the trouble but if it is nearer 3 then the risk and disruption would make it a pointless task.
