Well, maybe you had deleted your objects when you set leeway_second with 1 day, and later you changed leeway_second to 5min? Changing leeway_second won't change deletion timing of already deleted objects.
FYI, maybe it's not what you want, but there's a detailed description [1] on internal design and behaviour of garbage collection. Of course Riak CS and Riak is not a black box, how Riak CS uses Riak is open-sourced and not hidden. For developers and hard-core operators, there's just very primitive tool to diagnose Riak CS by hitting Riak directly. It is riak_cs_inspector, installed in /usr/lib/riak-cs/lib/riak_cs-1.4.5/priv/tools/internal/riak_cs_inspector.erl . See [2] for detailed usage. It prints Riak CS internal data in structured manner but it is still hard to find the answer "how many objects to be deleted today?" . I think your assumption is very natural, because there should be some operational visibility tools like you said.
