Anyone tried the Database Purge and Summarize in Epicor 9?

Too funny, right after I posted this it did complete.

For your information, performing this action only roughly the 3 months of purge data took 1 hour and 12 minutes. During that time, you pretty much can't use the database and probably shouldn't as you're going to get a lot of blocking with the database locks. In addition, your Epicor client will freeze up solid and not respond, so you'll need to just let that client sit and do its thing.

The final status came back with:
888 Part Transactions purged
1,815 Labor Details purged

I'm using Epicor 9.04.504B and decided we'd try it on Job Details and Indirect Labor in our test environment by only removing the oldest 3 months of data (we've been using the product for nearly 2 years now).

After an hour of it running apparently (Vantage client is not responding and server has one cpu grinding away) I'm still not sure what's happening. So, I may have to kill the processes since it's apparently not going to complete I'm guessing.
