Hello, wanted to share something that we've found in case others are experiencing the same thing. Our sandbox refreshes were taking 3+ weeks to complete. A few weeks ago we determined that our File Storage had ballooned to almost 4TB due to NSPB data syncing. We corrected that and got the storage size down to ~20GB. So, we kicked off another refresh and it finished it just 13 hours. So, I know it seems somewhat obvious, but your sandbox refresh time can be greatly impacted by your File Cabinet storage. #C29GDT351

@David B I was storing old home movies. 😜. No, it turned out to be that we were syncing with NSPB way more often than the cleanup script could run.

@eblackey curious to know how are you able to reduce from 4TB to 20 GB?

Most of our data was in file cabinet storage. We wrote a script to purge that data no longer needed.

We have redeployed NSPB cleanup script and it solved the problem. It took a whole week to cleanup.
