  Wdqs1006 reports 574.6GiB are reserved for the journal and 544.3GiB are 
actually used (~5% of space unused).
  While Wdqs1005 reports 1037.7GiB are reserved and only 543.5 are actully used 
(~47% of space unused).
  Most of the %FileWaste or reserved for 8K allocators, but %SlotWaste is also 
higher than usual for 4k (10 times higher than usual), 2k, 64 (3 times), 320 
and 768 allocators (2 times).
  
  Slots allocated using 8k allocators are similar on both servers (less than 5% 
difference) about 5,179M vs 5,431M and only ~1% of them remain in use ~63M. 
This happens due to updates, for each update parts of the indices related to 
the changing data have to be copied to a new allocator with changes applied, 
then the old allocator might be marked as unused and then reused for the later 
updates after all connections which refer to the commit point linked to the 
mentioned allocators are closed. But if a commit point could not be released, 
the allocators are also remain locked.
  
  Analyzing Graphana reports, I assume most of the allocators where consumed 
gradually from Nov 1, 6:00 to Nov 4, 18:00.
  
  Given all the above, the conclusion is that something (most probably some 
intentionally or unintentionally unclosed connection) was blocking releasing 
allocators for 3.5 days preventing their reuse, thus updates had to allocate 
new allocators, then the commit point was released and the locked allocators 
are also released, but they could not be removed from file, just increasing 
sparse space.
