This line graph illustrates the ratio of Garbage Data to Total Data. Garbage collection reduces the required capacity in the object store, but it also introduces overhead to the on-premises compute and storage resources, as well as the network between the primary site and the storage site. 

    • The displayed time span of the graph can be adjusted from the selection menu in the upper left corner. 
    • Highlighting a point on the graph displays data from that specific point in time.
    • The lower portion of the screen provides summary information.
