This means that in some BLOB field some 2 segments are not marked as DATA
segments, and not marked as DELETED segments. I.e. They are lost and cannot
be reused future.

This is minor problem, it affects only size of BLOB file.

This can indicate that you have forget in some place of your code do e.g.
UpdateRecord() after BLOB change.
