Download as zip not freeing diskspace

Hi,

Yestrerday I downloaded many folders as zip, logged in as tenant admin. Not really sure how many times, but 5-6 times.

An hour later I noticed the diskspace hadn't been released. Searched this forum and found one that says 1 hour housekeeping and another 24 hours. It's now been over 26 hours and still nothing freed.

I can get the bin filenames when looking at the disk files and their sizes from yesterday.

-rw-r----- 1 tomcat tomcat 35M Feb 15 08:35 ./15/8/35/69168e0d-c67d-4098-8103-3ae5e8f36397.bin
-rw-r----- 1 tomcat tomcat 1.5G Feb 15 08:38 ./15/8/37/6330b682-c207-48dd-8166-2d66461b2f97.bin
-rw-r----- 1 tomcat tomcat 932M Feb 15 08:43 ./15/8/42/41405512-408a-4418-8b3b-0742d5c99efa.bin
-rw-r----- 1 tomcat tomcat 154M Feb 15 08:44 ./15/8/44/a4e3a802-7338-4c68-aa31-968f4cf4e694.bin
-rw-r----- 1 tomcat tomcat 935M Feb 15 08:46 ./15/8/46/04609c67-6c37-4cba-9cca-67a0cebaacc4.bin
-rw-r----- 1 tomcat tomcat 1.1G Feb 15 08:49 ./15/8/49/baca1930-c9c9-4031-be46-347de1204dc1.bin

How dan I clean up these. The first one could be an ordinary document, not sure.

Is it safe to delete those files? Perhaps need to find noderefs and remove them also? Any guides on how to do that when using tenants?
