Error description

• Compression service with decompress option results in few zero
  byte files.
  
  While decompressing a file using the Compression Service
  , few zero byte files are found.
  
  The issue is seen when using a compressed file containing
  many more (around 60) to be descompressed into a folder.
  
  Test results with a file having 60 files showed around 8 zero
  byte files extracted into the folder.
  
  When tested with few (5-6) files the issue is not seen.
  
  Also occasionally transactions stay open in the
  database even the busines process has finished.
