As someone said, probably that a lot of extents. However the main deal here is that you could lock the users with an ST lock. Therefore, you mustn't try it where all the users are in. And also you could try with a truncate table....reuse storage, and then issuing several alter table deallocate of little chunks each one. Sometimes it is better when you don't want to block users.

Regards.
