Exchange Archiving - Event ID 10027

Regarding Mailbox Folder Assistant on Exchange 2010.

We have a handful of users who were archived about a week ago.  Their total email storage before the archiving totaled about 25 gb.  Archive policies are 2 years current and the rest to archive with no automatic deletion set on the archive.

Ever since then, the MFA has been processing HUGE amounts of data every night in the amount of at least 60 gb.   That's 60 gb on total storage of 25 gb.

I understand that the MFA runs 24/7 with self-throttling with the actual processing done during low priority moments but it's been about a week of processing huge amounts of data.  I should only see the heavy activity during the first couple days during the initial archiving.

For what it's worth, circular logging has been turned off for both the source and archive dbs.

Is there a log showing what the MFA actually processes or another method of troubleshooting?  I need to see what the MFA is actually doing besides an event log transaction (event id 10027).

The accepted solution does not answer the original question, which is, is there a log showing exactly what it processed and from what mailbox?  I am having the same issue, with event 10027 saying that it's moving massive amounts of data every single night...way more than the actual archive has.  Turning up logging produces no additional information outside of that one event.  It almost seems like it is somehow moving the same data every night.  And I know it's shuffling data, and not just logging that it has, because the VMware snapshot, just for the one archive database, grows to over 100gb while the server is being backed up, yet the volume inside windows stays the same.  All other databases stay less than a few megs.
