Hmm... Not as much space recovered as I hoped. I am guessing that won't help
you much...

There's a behaviour with LMDB that if one process is reading the index when
another wants to write, the data written is appended. It's there to help "crash
proof" the index.

You might meet this in a baloo context if you do "balooctl status" as this
counts the files "indexed" and "to be done". If you are counting a large number
of files and indexing at the same time you might fall into the trap. I met it
after deleting some thousands of files, have a look at Bug 437754

I wonder if your next step is to reindex from scratch, keeping an eye on
progress with "balooctl monitor"; maybe restricting the directories you are
interested in, at least initially. A common compromise is Documents, Music,
Pictures, Videos
