I'm working through an issue with Outlook right now, where the system seems to hang for a minute or so at a time frequently when Outlook is running, and have noticed an odd thing in the Documents folder.

Checking the size of ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data consistently shows that the folder is 2.84 GB. However, when I go one folder deeper and check the size of ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Main Identity I consistently get a size of 16.84 GB.

This seems to be the only folder acting this way, though I admittedly only checked several others in Documents & ~/Library, and with the connection to Outlook's data I can't help but wonder if it's connected. Haven't dug too deep into troubleshooting yet but wanted to see if anyone else had run into something similar.
