When you refer to expired files do you mean that the number of versions
has been exceeded or that expiration processing has actually been
performed? Excess versions of a file will continue to occupy space
in the database until expiration processing occurs, at which time
all database entries for the excess versions will be removed from the
database.
The consequence is that your database may grow until expiration
processing is performed, because any excess versions will continue to
occupy database space. However, expiration processing will reduce
database occupancy by removing database entries for expired files.
