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.
