48 hours sounds like an awfully looong time to me. On my busiest Linux server (90gb DB, ~100 clients) expiration completes in 20-30 minutes.

Granted, the server is very busy performing other tasks such as client backups, stgbackups and such. The DB buffers and such are configured identically to the production server. On my first test expire run on my new test server (to which I reloaded the 194GB production DB), the expire ran in 10-hours - 1/4 of the usual time.
