| If you've noticed that [your disk space is not freeing up quickly enough after deleting data](#why-is-my-disk-usage-not-decreasing-after-deleting-data), you can take the following steps to free up disk space more quickly. This example assumes a table `t`. | |||

We also may need to note here that if the customer encounters a problem with disk space not being freed up quickly enough after dropping the table, this method will only work for the next table dropped. If your issue is with the last table dropped, you'll need some other method to identify the ranges that need to be GCed.
