Have you tried compacting the pst file ?

Usually, compacting wipes deleted items and re-arrange the free space from the pst file.

No, you wont lose any data.

The compact tool works just like windows defragmenter.

It compresses free space, completely removes all your deleted items, etc.

Compacting pst file is good option here that will reduce the size of pst file. If the pst file does not have more white spaces or blank segments then size of pst file will not reduce more even after compaction. Whereas calling for a system compatible pst file splitter will be worthy adopting. The product will split pst file into numerous parts by with the provision of numerous splitting options (such as: by date, by year, by size etc).

is there any other way to perform better for PST , i mean other than compacting. because this takes longer time to compact

Hi there

Size of 10 gb of any pst file is undoubtedly critically large and splitting is very good approach to make the size smaller so as to protect the file from getting corrupt and making your outlook perform better.

I would like to recommend SysTools split pst tool here (www.splitpst.com) which actually is an interesting utility to divide pst file into smaller part and if you are not satisfied by splitting pst file by year, why don't you try other way to split pst files like you can split it by date, size or by folders in pst file. 

The pst splitter one i found here http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Split-PST-File-in-Outlook-53dc8dc4 seems quite worth using as a alternative to compaction.

Heavy sized pst file always creates problem. The speed of ms outlook goes very slow and it starts hanging. The best and suitable way is to archive old emails, compact pst file, delete unused emails or fragment pst file into numerous parts. MS Outlook has inbuilt function to Archive and Compact pst automatically but for splitting purpose, you have to manually executes several steps. To save time and effort, you can rely on any extra-ordinary pst splitter product for the purpose of large size pst splitting. Most probably, all pst splitters are paid but you can get an overview of the product by executing their free trial edition. Simple google search provided me an app in basis of split by date, size & year criteria.

An MS Outlook 2010 user can easily and effectively split a large sized .pst file into multiple parts. I would like to share a blog here: How to break or divide an oversized PST file into multiple parts on WordPress. 

Read this blog to split large sized .pst files without using any third-party software. If an Outlook user is using 2010 version, he/she may use "Archive" or "Import and Export" feature. To know how to use these features to split a .pst file, read the blog linked above.

Thanks.
