JMHO... when you turn collocation off again it will just start to
     finish filling any "filling" tapes and, and, and...

     No big deal in other words...

     and the more daily traffic you have the quicker the environment will
     normalize itself to what ever setting you are using collocation

I have been reading the manuals and am not finding the answer to my
question.  Perhaps with this group I will.  IF an installation turns
collocation on and later decides to turn collocation off, what are the
ramifications of space reclamation?  Will it be possible to drive
reclamation such that all volumes are at least 50% utilized?

With that in mind, should collocation ever be used in a large installation?
