Description
WiredTiger does not compact or reclaim space following a repair
Currently our documentation is incorrect; See the following page
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/command/repairDatabase/
This page states that the following will occur:
- Repair will reclaim disk space
- Repair will run a compact as part of the process
These functions are not executed in this manner when using WiredTiger.
To reclaim disk space on WiredTiger, you need to run the compact command not the repair command.
