Below is my case,
* AEM on-premise
* Happens only on PROD Author environment, but works normally on lower environment
* Also reproducible on Cloned PROD environment, just to check if traffic is the issue.
* VersionPurge task is running weekly, but Health reports says it has to be executed daily. However, tried scheduling it on daily basis on Cloned PROD env, but in vain.
Most importantly, this job generates the .tmp files in the underlying /tmp folder and causes overflow issues

Question :
1. Is this normal for the given task to take hours?
2. Why sometime it finishes in 1-2hrs and sometime it lasts for 10-15+ hours?
3. Last but not the least, any ideas how I can optimize it?
4. Even after successful Lucene Binaries cleanup, why the next job run takes huge amount of time?
5. Gone through documentation, but didn't help much.
Because, this job consumes /tmp folder's 100% space, other tasks like package creation using /crx/packmgr OR content authoring or content publishing gets blocked.
Help suggestions are welcomed.
