Behavior
Accuracy after Unexpected Shutdown
After an unclean shutdown of a mongod using the Wired Tiger storage engine, count and size statistics reported by db.stats may be inaccurate.
The amount of drift depends on the number of insert, update, or delete operations performed between the last checkpoint and the unclean shutdown. Checkpoints usually occur every 60 seconds. However, mongod instances running with non-default --syncdelay settings may have more or less frequent checkpoints.
Run validate on each collection on the mongod to restore the correct statistics after an unclean shutdown.
