Fellow exchange admins\engineers\gurus,

Does anyone have any suggestions for this situation?

Config:
Exchange 5.5 SP4
WinNT 4.0 SP6
Priv.edb = 45GB
Deleted Item Cache = 11.5 GB
Deleted Item retention was 7 days, but in an effort to fix this I set it
to 3 days to see if it would make a difference.  The DIC (ok..I can see
the jokes coming, but hey.it's Friday) was 15 GB and after the change it
shrunk to 11.5 GB after a couple days.
Whitespace = Event ID's 1221 state that on average there is 2GB of
whitespace

When I look at the mailbox sizes through Exchange Admin and do a dump to
CSV it totals out to be about 7 GB, yet the Priv is 45 GB.  Backups are
taking extremely long and I wanted to see if anyone had a suggestions as
to what, if any, the problem could be here.  We have done a number of IS
compresses and only gotten about 2-4 GB of space (no surprise because of
the reported whitespace).  But with what Exchange Admin is reporting I
am concerned.

Thanks for any suggestions and for those in the states..have a good
relaxing holiday.


Best regards,
Steve
