Unsure if that alludes the algorithm was an explicit\hard-and-fast 10%, or perhaps had accounted for scaling according to total records [thus tempering the action, applying the request against members against which /reasonable amounts/ of rows can be reclaimed]. Do consider that 10% of a 10-row file is just one record; the expense for attempting to reclaim all of the storage from just the one row [which actually requires two successive Reorganize Physical File Member (RGZPFM) requests] rarely can be justified.
