Comment (by axeld):
Not sure if you mean the size or the time it requires:
1. Trimming is not necessarily a fast operation. That's why it's usually
not done when actually deleting files, but later on as some kind of
scrubbing service.
2. Trimming clears free space, not used space. The more files there are on
your partition, the less space is subject to trimming.
