As a very rough estimate I do estimate a 5% waste of space regarding deleted messages. But, my handful users are very disciplined in purging their deleted messages on a regular basis (I told them to do), and thus my regular "doveadm purge -A" runs will reduce that amount of wasted disk space to a minimum.
Not very helpful, I know,
Are you sure about that? There was a thread a while back (I recently posted a response to it) about this, and it sounded like the mdbox files would *never* be 'compacted' (reduced in size from deleted messages)... my reply was on 8/23, thread titled "Dovecot never release preallocated space in mdbox'...
