How you've gone from 75MB to 4.3GB I can't explain though!!
You don't say what version of UniData you are on but I am going to
make an educated guess that it is an older release. I am also going
to guess that you used the default hash type when you created the
file. My last guess is that the file currently is a hash type of
1. Do a GROUP.STAT filename
This will quickly tell you at the top what hash type it is.
Years ago, when this was the default, people were getting horrible
hashing when creating dynamic files. They end up with all these
empty groups and huge files that continue to split. This was so much
of a problem, that they (Ardent/Informix) then made hash type 0 the
default. Remember, you can always specify the hashtype on file
creation to override defaults.
I would bet money this is your problem,
